Chike, the prominent Nigerian singer, songwriter and recording artist popularly known for hits such as Adaugo and Running To You featuring the lovely Simi has revealed something important his mama told him.

On Flow 98.9 FM’s Ada’s Room podcast. Chike revealed his mother’s advice to always seek women with real value and income. In his words, “My mom told me never to settle down with a woman who doesn’t have a job, no matter how much I love her.” 

He urged his followers to avoid women who pretend to hustle but in reality have nothing to do. These women usually depend on others for even their basic needs. According to Chike, they must be avoided. 

This interview generated a lot of discourse from Nigerians, with some praising it for its practicality. While others rejected it with the view that it could turn love into a transaction.
