Nollywood actress Idia Aisien recently became emotional while speaking about her past relationships during a sit-down conversation with media personality Toke Makinwa.
During the interview, the actress revealed that she used to financially support some of the men she dated because she believed they were building a future together. According to her, some of the men would claim their businesses were struggling, and as someone dating with the intention of marriage, she felt it was right to help them.
Idia said she sometimes gave them millions of naira in support, believing that once they became successful, they would also support her in return.
However, she recalled a painful experience where one of the men she helped betrayed her trust. According to the actress, after giving him money meant for business, she later discovered that he had used the funds to fly another woman abroad.
She explained that the man had initially told her his phone was not working when she tried to reach him. The truth later surfaced when her brother spotted him with another woman and sent her a picture.
Reacting to the story, Toke Makinwa disagreed with the idea of financially supporting a boyfriend. She stated that if a woman is not married or engaged to a man, his financial struggles or destiny should not involve her money.
Idia, however, questioned what a woman should do if she has the resources and her partner genuinely needs help, sparking a broader conversation about money and relationships.
She said ‘’There was this guy I gave money and then I remember all of a sudden his phone wasn’t going through. I was trying to reach him. He then explained to me his phone wasn’t working…blah..blah…blahh…and then I found out he had flown a popular girl business class to Dubai or South Africa at the time.
“He claimed he was in Lagos but that his phone was having issues. It was one of my brothers that told me that your boyfriend is here with a babe and I was like ‘no it’s not possible.
“He is in Lekki’ My brother was like ‘are you mad?’ My brother now sent me a picture. When I now told him he was in Dubai, he now goes ‘no babe, my friends dragged me’ I said but I just gave you money for business and he was like ‘it’s even for the business thing they dragged him”
