Jemima Osunde Slams Women Who Only Want Rich Men: “Go And Work in This Economy”

Nollywood actress Jemima Osunde has stirred up heated debate online after bluntly criticizing women who expect to marry or date only wealthy men without working for their own income.
“Wetin Do Your Own Ass?”
Taking to her official X (Twitter) page, Osunde called out what she described as “entitlement culture” among some Nigerian women.
She wrote:
“Work his ass off for money. Wetin do your own ass? You don’t want to work? In this economy? It’s like some of you think we’re still living in Bible times.”
Her fiery comments quickly went viral, with many praising her for promoting independence and financial responsibility.
“Not Enough Billionaires to Go Around”
Going further, Jemima reminded her followers that the dream of becoming a “rich housewife” is unrealistic in today’s world.
“My good sis, there’s not enough billionaires in the world for all of us to be housewives. You better go and look for work.”
The actress’s message was clear: women should stop depending solely on men for wealth and instead build their own financial security.
Reactions Flood Social Media
Her remarks divided opinions across platforms:
-
Supporters applauded her boldness, saying it was a much-needed reality check in a struggling economy.
-
Critics, however, argued that women still have every right to set financial standards in relationships.
Either way, Jemima Osunde has once again proven she’s not afraid to challenge societal norms.
