In a post he shared, the comedian said he has never heard of a woman opening a shop for a man, unlike the many cases where men open businesses for women. He went further to ask if it is that men are better at keeping secrets.
His words were simple but they carried a weight that touched on gender roles, love, and financial support in relationships. For years, stories have circulated of men setting up shops or businesses for their partners, only for some of the relationships to end in heartbreak. Igosave’s observation shines a light on a question many have silently asked but few have spoken out loud.
The post immediately attracted different reactions. Some people agreed with him, saying it is true that women rarely open shops for men. Others argued that society expects men to be providers, which is why their efforts are more visible. A few even pointed out that there are women who support their men financially but they keep it private to avoid embarrassment or mockery.
The debate goes beyond comedy. It exposes how finances and gender expectations play a role in modern relationships. In Nigeria, many couples struggle with money, and acts of financial support often become topics for gossip and judgment.
At the heart of it, Igosave’s question is not just about shops or businesses. It is about the silent sacrifices people make, the weight of cultural expectations, and the hidden truths in relationships. Whether men truly “keep secrets” or women simply give in less obvious ways remains a debate, but one thing is clear: money and love are always deeply connected.
So what do you think the post?
