Reality TV star, Bella Okagbue has advised Nigerian parents on why it is very important to hustle for their kids future.
99% of Nigerians, according to the reality TV star, are simply interested in hyping and making money off of other people’s wealth, without giving it any thought as to where it originates from.
She said that it appears that working illegal jobs has become widespread in this day and age, calling it incredibly distressing that a person’s wealth is the only thing that determines their status in society.
According to Bella, she does not want to raise her children in an environment where it is customary to marry someone who cannot provide proof of their income.
She advised parents to put in a lot of work so that their children would marry for love and not for money. Most importantly, teach children the importance of contentment so that they won’t look the wrong way when they its not all rosy.
Her words: “99% of Nigerians don’t care about how you make your money. They just want to hype you and tap into your wealth without caring about your source of income. It even feels like doing an illegal job is normalised in this day and age. You’d be seen as important in the society if you are rich and it’s quite sad cause I don’t want to bring up my kids in such an environment where they think it’s okay to hurt people to get there or it’s okay to marry people that you cannot account for their source of income. Hustle o, so you can give your kids the best life so your kids can marry for love and not for hunger so in their own world they would never be able to relate to certain lifestyle or associate with certain people. Most importantly, teach them contentment so when it’s not all rosy, they’d never look the wrong way.”
