Nollywood actress and media personality, Toke Makinwa has expressed her opinion on Nigerian men, describing them as “the best in the world.”
The media personality, who stated this while speaking on the latest episode of her podcast, TokeMoments, also emphasized that Nigerian men are badly behaved.
Despite her critiques of Nigerian men, Toke Makinwa asserted that they outshine their counterparts globally, particularly in comparison to men in the United Kingdom.
She said: “No matter how I criticise Lagos boys, Nigerian men are just badly behaved. But I still think Naija men in the pool are still the best around the world.”
To illustrate her point, she drew a comparison with the dating experiences of her cousins in the United Kingdom, stating, “What UK girls are going through, I don’t understand. All my cousins in the UK when they tell me their dating stories, it is bad.”
Her guest, Madame Joyce, a British media personality, concurred with Toke’s perspective, adding, “Honestly, it is really bad. And I feel like because we are so used to it, that is just the expectation.
“In Nigeria here, somebody opened the car door for me, I was like, ‘Wow!’ UK boys barely do that. Chivalry in London is so dead. The guys don’t have much shame. There are still conversations about splitting the bills. It happened to me once.”
