LAGOS, Nigeria – The story of Zainab Abidoye, a 22-year-old Nigerian woman, and her relationship with a 52-year-old man has sparked debates about love, wealth, and personal choice. Here’s the lowdown on this sensational story.
The Viral Tweet
Zainab, a 22-year-old, tweeted about her 52-year-old ex-lover’s marriage to another woman. Her post, candid and emotional, went viral. She wrote:
Polygamy: He wanted a second wife, which was against her principles.
Toxicity: She hinted at toxic behavior but didn’t elaborate.
Public Response and Further Clarifications
Following the viral tweet, Zainab received a message urging her to educate other women about her decision. She responded:
“He has a lot of money… but that’s not enough reason for me to marry him.”
She also emphasized her lack of readiness for marriage.
A Different Perspective
However, the story took a turn when a man, claiming to know both Zainab and her former lover, accused her of exploiting the older man’s wealth. He detailed how she enjoyed a luxurious lifestyle, including travels and a Lexus car, all sponsored by the man.
Adding to the controversy, past tweets of Zainab showed her flaunting her relationship with the man, sharing affectionate messages and plans for the future. This contradicted her later stance of independence and refusal based on principles.
