Doyin David, the Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) season seven housemate, says she cannot marry a man who lives on the Lagos mainland.
Lagos is divided into two: mainland and island. The island consists of major places like Lekki, Victoria Island, and Ikoyi while the mainland includes many other LGAs in the state.
In a recent interview on Channels Television’s Rubbin’ Minds, Doyin said her partner must be considerate, kind, and “someone that is giving.
The reality star said she cannot marry a man who lives on the mainland because everything that I do is situated on the island.
What is important to me is someone considerate. If you have a considerate partner, they think about you before every action that they take, she said.
They think about how it affects you, and how it is going to affect the family, which is very important. So, someone that is considerate, someone that is kind, someone that is giving. I am not about that broke life. That is just the truth.
I do not live on the mainland. I do not think there is anything bad about living on the mainland. If I am going to date you, you are going to have to move to the island. Just because that is what I am used to. It is also closer to everything I do. Absolutely, he will move to the island.
I am not going to move to the mainland. That is just me If he really wants somebody that would live on the mainland, he could find himself another wife. But that is not going to be me.
Doyin, however, said she is open to another option; which is moving to a central location with her man.
We are going to find a place that is central for both of us. Because most of the things I do everything that I do is situated on the island,” she said.
It will be strange for me to now pack my whole life and move to the mainland because I am getting married.
I am not going to do that. And that is not because I do not respect my husband, it is just because let us do something that works for both of us.
If we can find a middle ground. Maybe somewhere that is both accessible for us.
