Nollywood actress and filmmaker Iheme Nancy has berated a 40-year-old admirer.
It all started during an Instagram Q&A session when a follower expressed his interest, writing, “I will need u to be my woman I am a 40 yr old guy.”
Reacting, Iheme dismissed his proposal, saying, “You can’t afford me… Move to the next person.”
Following her reply, fans took to social media to slam her.
A user identified as Deacon Famous commented, “Coming from a lady in her 30s. A commodity and more.”
After facing backlash, Iheme defended her stance, explaining that her comment was based on her observation of the man’s situation.
She wrote, “Listen, 40 years is a very sweet age for marriage, but don’t get me wrong when I said you can’t afford me. I know what I saw. You needed to see this 40-year-old person asking me to marry him. I don’t understand why I should settle for less… Holy Ghost fire, I will never settle for less!”
She further clarified that her refusal stemmed from red flags she observed, adding, “I said what I said… comments don’t get to me because I don’t care. 40 years with RED FLAGS everywhere. Oga, you can’t afford me, period.”
