In this piece which he posted on his Facebook wall,
comedian Alibaba discusses the Nigerian woman and the
challenges of finding Mr Right. Read below...
I have a serious matter at hand that I want to share.
In fact, I should have shared this long ago, but the
primary message from a friend that prompted the
matter, was lost in between the series of inbox
messages from those strange girls that are looking
for romantic friendships on Facebook.
In a nutshell, a lady friend sent me an inbox message
on how it's harder to find a good man in Nigeria. And
that the men who are "manageable" (her words, not
mine) are so scarce and if you ever get them they are
either married to a lady that does not deserve them or
just repenting from a bad marriage from one of such
women. Or even just lost faith in the whole marriage
thing. Continue...
I later ran into her at a club. After the usual introductions
that have become common place with these social media
network of friends... (You are my friend on twitter,
Facebook, Tango, INSTAGRAM... That kind of thing).... I
chatted with her a bit and found out from what she told me,
that, many women are now settling for anything in between
MR Right, MR Not just ok and MR Nearly right. As she put
it, it's now a case of looking at what a guy checks out in
the top 10 box... And if he has 3 out of 10, snap him up...
Work on the rest 7, if you are lucky, you can get him to add
3 more of those top10 qualities... And begin to pray it lasts
for as long as you both can manage.
Much as I tried, to get her to rate me, she said, she can
only rate someone who is on her radar. So ladies have
relationship radar? Yes of course. You think you were not
in Mary's radar, and she waited for you to come back after
you... ? Ouch!!! (That was my guy who was listening in on
our private conversation) I wasn't on Mary's radar.... I
managed to mutter. Then she fooled you wellllll. She
quickly added.
It got me thinking... What does a man need to show to get
on any woman's radar? Money, sense of humor, fame,
dress sense, good job, intelligence, good diction, good
physique, some visible signs of affluence, confidence,...
She let me continue for a while, raised her glass of
Henessy VSOP, downed it, and said, "He must first be
AVAILABLE. Then you can begin to check out the rest." So
I asked, do I look available? She said, "Of course, to the
people who do not care if you are married, you are very
available! Not to me, OOO. Mary was my boss at Platinum.
So that strikes you out." So I asked the next possible
question, "so what can I do to look unavailable?" There is
nothing. You are even an easy pick. She added. Any man
who has a source of income, popular, dresses well, tall,
handsome small sef, has a car, is in the circles of
successful people, looks like he has potentials to become
somebody important and can pay the bills...
Our conversation started having K-leg when she lit a cigar,
not cigarette, Cuban cigar and started smoking. I took a
good look at her, and realized that, these women who are
looking for a MR Right all over Lagos, may just have met
him but he is also looking for a woman who doesn't drink
alcohol or smoke anything at all. That is the wahala. As
you are looking for MR right, he might be dodging you
because you are all shades of wrong...
While you are looking waiting for a guy to walk in and fit
into your radar, you are doing some things that also
confine you to the "never my type" hemisphere...
So, in conclusion, just as good men are hard to find,
"manageable" ladies are unicorns!!!!
