In response to the news of Nigerian billionaire heir Geoffrey Ogunlesi proposing to U.S. jewelry designer Jennifer Meyer with a $500k ring, one comment stated, “After 3 years she go file for divorce, then the man go share em property.”
This comment reflects a pessimistic and cynical outlook on relationships, especially when wealth is involved. Why should love and commitment be overshadowed by assumptions of failure or material gain? Such remarks suggest that marriage is a mere transaction, where financial success is seen as a prelude to inevitable division.
Instead of fostering doubt, we should encourage a more positive perspective, where relationships are built on mutual respect, trust, and love—far beyond what material wealth may bring.
