Anate Adeleke, a Nigerian woman, recently shared her perspective, suggesting that women might consider being in an abusive marriage where their financial needs are met, rather than settling for a financially struggling partner. She expressed this viewpoint on August 13 in response to a Twitter user’s story about a woman marrying her abusive Yahoo boy fiancé despite advice to the contrary.
Adeleke’s tweet emphasized that it’s preferable for women to have their needs provided for in a challenging marriage, rather than being with a financially unstable man who could negatively impact their lives with a poverty-driven mindset.
