“I Can’t Date a Girl Who Earns ₦100k Monthly, She Must Earn ₦2m” – Nigerian Cleaner

A Nigerian man has gone viral after boldly declaring that he cannot date a woman who earns ₦100,000 per month, insisting that such an amount is “too small” to sustain a relationship.

The young man, identified as a cleaner, made the statement during a street interview titled “POV: Men If Roles Were Reversed.” Eyes Of Lagos reports,
“₦100k Can’t Even Fill My Gas”

When asked if he could date a woman earning ₦100,000 monthly, the cleaner replied:

“No, I can never date a girl that earns ₦100,000 a month. ₦100,000 is too small; it cannot even fill my gas.”

He further emphasized that any woman who wishes to be in a relationship with him must be making at least ₦2 million monthly.
His Own Bank Balance

In a twist that shocked viewers, the interviewer asked him about his own finances. The young man admitted he had just ₦1,270 in his bank account at the time of the interview.
Reactions Trail Viral Video

The clip sparked heated debate online, with Nigerians sharing mixed reactions:

Just football:
“In today’s dating scene, many women avoid men who are financially struggling, yet expect men to accept them as they are. When those men succeed, they raise their standards, leaving choosy women single, while wealthy men pursue baby mamas or younger women. The game is the game.”

Mere Mortal:
“My ex is a millionaire, my woman currently is more than half a mil, anyhow you look at it, there are levels to this thing… There’s male hypergamy too.”

Elpee Environmental:
“This is no man o but boy/pikin. Someone earning 100k can’t date you but you have just 1k for your akant? Na thunder go fire this boy.”

Stanley:
“Same here, I can’t date a poor girl. You must be well to do before I can date you. Cause no b me u wan use escape poverty.”

Deiz Khalifa:
“Normally this guy is delusional, however I kind of agree. Guys also have the right to set their standards; girls shouldn’t be the only ones deciding.”

The Bigger Picture

The video adds to ongoing debates about money, dating standards, and gender roles in Nigeria’s modern relationships. While many laughed at the man’s unrealistic demands, others argued that men also have the right to set financial expectations in relationships — even if their own situation doesn’t measure up.

Everyone should have the right to set his or her standards

What ever consequences of such standards you bear it alone

He's such a clout chaser. How much is he making from his cleaning job monthly?

Na so e suppose be ....

So long these bannies keep on raising their standards, nothing should also stop men from mastering what they(bannies) started themselves

Bro calm down. Women too should know that they are not the only ones who should be setting standards. Men should set their own standards too

His relationship, his choice. No gender has a monopoly on setting standards for themselves

Men have started speaking out , my ex came and borrowed my body spray for a Sunday event. Naso she get standard but no shishi, she's yet to return it🤷🏿. Wahala for who take that gender serious.

Good one, poor man too get choice.

Don't settle for less.

Lol everybody with there want and putting themselves in tight spot...



Shey girl wey dey chop Sportyyy count

The unannounced error killing societal values from both genders.
Someone whose economic value is Z-, is requesting as a standard a woman whose economic value is B+.

What happened to him?
Why not raise your value first before demanding a reciprocal value.

Such a man is simply a failure and a gambler wanting to profit without investment.

What this guy is saying will soon come to pass when men become scarce.

There are already invisible men among us.
Meaning men who don't exist as men in the eyes of women.

Now when the population increases and ratio of women to men is 10 to 1.

Men will start making unrealistic demands like women also.

Skits, we too dey take everything real in Nigeria

If na woman talk like this, people for comot dey defend am.


So me sef go happily support this my homie with DJ Cuppy phone number.


Nothing do you guy, you sef na specs, anybody wey no reach, no climb....

Lol...the tall dreams are not meant for women alone. What is good for Greece is good for Uganda

the other gender are angered by this response but everyone has the right to chose what he wants

This generation is indeed the only unserious generation.

Wetin I never see.

Geh gehh should be the president of Nigeria, I'm loving the way boys eyes are now opening

This man must be joking even ladies earning above 100k a month are all looking for a readymade man.

Just find one kele way serious make you wife am.

Yeah, I kinda agree with his submissions considering the fact that the dating scene is now a circus 🎪 of unrealistic, delusional,overwhelmingly fraudulent in nature.
Many girls uses relationship as a poverty eradication programme.
It's OK(lovely) for a Nigerian man to marry a broke,uneducated, lazy and wild woman from a generational poor background but it's a taboo for a lady to marry a poor but modest man in this country.

Mr Blogger, Is Here, Observing As E Dey Go

The guy, don talk as E dey him mind

I support him.
The other greedy gender has been setting all sorts of "high jumps" for men since time immemorial.
Let them taste it a little too..

Guys need to set standard.
This guy knows what he wants.

If you want date broke girl.
You go carry load tire
If you empower broke girl,
e go leave you immediately e see higher class except e nor see

Don't date a broke girl as a guy.
Chop clean mouth and waka immediately.

Content creators doing their normal shooting .Which food e dey cook in a month wey 100k no fit fill his gas. 🙄
