A Nigerian lady has sparked outrage on social media after voicing her dissatisfaction with how Nigerian men in the UK handle expenses on outings.

According to her, even modest expenses such as a £10 supper or a drink can cause unnecessary tension due to the insistence on dividing everything.

She noted that her dissatisfaction stems from the lack of generosity she has witnessed, emphasising that it is sometimes best to overlook minor gestures rather than keeping score.

Read what she said below:

“I will never understand you Nigerian guys in this UK. You guys split every bill. Because tell me, why would I be out with you, and we’re eating something less than £10, or having a drink, and I offered to pay for both of us, maybe less than £15.

Then you want to send me £8. You are so much in a hurry to transfer £8 to me. Who does this kind of thing? Why do we have to come and emulate everything?”

She went on to say that life abroad does not have to be so calculated, noting that tiny actions of giving and taking can foster trust and friendship.

“I could buy a drink for you today. You could buy a drink for me tomorrow. This thing is not that deep as you guys are making it,” she added.

Her rant has resonated with mixed reactions online. One

“Honestly, I feel her! Sometimes it’s like we’re trying to keep a ledger of every little thing. Life abroad is already stressful; small gestures shouldn’t turn into arguments.”
