‘A successful woman isn’t valued in Nigeria unless she’s married’ - Uriel

Big Brother Naija star, Uriel Oputa, has stated that successful women are under appreciated in Nigeria until when she gets married.

Uriel issue a stern warning against people downplaying women’s accomplishments on the basis of them not having a husband.

She lamented that in Nigerian society no matter how wealthy a woman, she is seen to have not accomplished anything if she doesn’t have a husband.

In her words: “In Nigeria, if you like be a billionaire, have the most successful business, be the most famous, you haven’t accomplished anything unless you are married.

“Very useless mindset. Some women actually don’t want to get married. Stop downplaying women’s achievements because of marriage.”
