On her Facebook page, the lady said she politely declined his marriage proposal but did not expect his reaction.
She said:
“So this dude I know asked me to marry him… I told him that even if he ticks all the boxes for the perfect man for marriage, I cannot marry him because he lives in his family house with no hope of leaving to get his own house in the nearest future, the family house is inside inside Awada, on the 6th floor of a 6 storey building! I said everything politely oo cos the man in question is also my customer.
“A whole 6 storey building! No borehole, No elevator. Nya, I will leave this my beautiful, comfy, peaceful apartment in GRA to go and live inside Awada, on the top of a 6 storey building so I will climb staircase to early grave. I wasn't born and raised to climb eternal staircase everyday of my life so I can never adapt.”

“If you're approaching a Millennial woman for marriage, at least offer her something better than she already has because overtime, most of these women have built themselves and attained a certain level of independence and comfort. These women will not sacrifice their comfort and put their mental health at stake for any man in the name of marriage except for the desperate unmarried ones...
