Nigerian rapper, Erigga has called out internet fraudsters, otherwise known as Yahoo boys.
He alleged that fraudsters have contributed significantly to the transactional nature of relationship in the Nigerian society nowadays.
He stated this while speaking in an interview with Yanga FM Lagos.
The rapper explained that Yahoo boys’ extravagant speeding on women has made it difficult for other men, who can’t afford speeding extravagantly, to maintain a healthy relationship with women who are already used to the standard set by the fraudsters.
“Yahoo boys don kill romance. [Genuine] romance no longer exists. When last did you see two lovers holding hands together in the street? It has been long we saw such. The problem now, is that we are raising weak men who feel their entire value is in their pockets,” he expressed.
“Nowadays, relationship is expensive. It used to be meat pie, Mr Biggs Fanta, very affordable back then. And the women were very appreciative. But men also share in the blame, weak men are the ones who set the standards -women took and raised the bars.”
He urged men to explore ways of offering more in relationships other than just money. The music star added that emotional intelligence and other personal skills could spark genuine interest in women than flaunting money.
