Tonto Dikeh, an evangelist and Nollywood actress, has expressed her opinions on Christian singles' romance.
Tonto encouraged men to take the initiative when pursuing women for marriage in a video.
She clarified that some guys use "low effort" techniques when courting.
She added that guys should not rely exclusively on spiritual claims as a substitute for true effort when courting a woman for marriage.
Although it's a hilarious subject, we really need talk about it. So, if you are a brother in the Lord, step forward; this is for you.
Why do church brothers believe that presents are unnecessary for church sisters?
What about this low-effort stuff you put into wooing or pursuing a woman? "God sent me to you," church brethren would say, among other things.
God may send you, but it is a misunderstanding of God's nature to use spiritual terminology to cover for emotional indolence.
"It is not an excuse to avoid intentionality and practical effort to say, 'God told me you are my wife,'" she stated.
"God's love is expressive, spiritual maturity should elevate your standard...give that gift bro Obinna, plan that date, put effort!!".
