A Nigerian man currently struggling with a debt of over ₦18 million has caused a stir online after revealing that his wife is requesting his permission to sleep with a wealthy chief in exchange for money to feed their child.
The man shared his emotional turmoil in a post on the social media platform X (formerly known as Twitter), where he spoke about the heart-wrenching situation he is facing and his wife's desperate proposal. The post quickly garnered attention and sparked widespread debates about morality, financial struggles, and the state of Nigerian families in crisis.
According to the man, the chief has been persistently pursuing his wife, and she is now asking for his consent to go along with the arrangement. Torn between his sense of desperation and his moral values, the man admitted that he is considering divorce as a way to relieve her from marital responsibilities while also potentially solving their financial difficulties. He expressed that the situation is getting worse despite selling his assets and trying to keep his business afloat, but nothing seems to be improving. He said: “Sir Wiz, I’m just confused. Things have gotten really bad for me. My wife is begging me to permit her to sleep with a chief who’s been disturbing her, so we can feed our son.”
He continued: “But it doesn’t sit right with me. I can’t imagine giving that kind of consent and still staying in the marriage. But I kind of feel we’re past happiness now.”
“I’m considering divorce—so I can move on, and she can do whatever she needs to help herself and our son. Things keep getting worse.”
“I’ve been selling my property, but the business is still not making a profit. We feed for a few days, then we’re broke again. My current debt is over ₦18 million.”
The viral post attracted hundreds of reactions from people across Nigeria and beyond, with some expressing sympathy for the man's dire situation, while others debated the ethics of the wife’s request and the broader financial hardships many Nigerians are enduring. Some people even questioned whether the wife had already been engaging with the chief secretly, with others calling for a divorce if this proposal was to continue.
