Danielle Edochie, the first daughter of actor Yul Edochie and his estranged wife, May, has explained why she would never date a Yahoo boy.

The social media personality shared her views in a video that has gone viral online. She spoke against the growing trend of people normalising fraud and theft.

“I don’t know about the rest of you, but I have been seeing this trend normalising stealing and fraud. I will never romanticise the idea of being with someone as a partner who steals from people online or even physically,” she said.

Danielle said she does not understand why anyone would choose a fraudster as a romantic partner. According to her, money made through fraud comes from innocent victims.

“Anytime I hear, ‘Oh, you’re not into fraud?’ I’m like, I don’t understand. So I will risk my own existence to be with somebody who steals money from people? Your whole life is based on somebody else’s hard work or somebody else’s money,” she added.

She also addressed the attraction many people have to the wealth linked to fraudsters. However, she said no amount of money can justify crime.

“The thousands and millions of naira probably consume a lot of people these people are making from sources that are not theirs. But if you do fraud, stay the hell away from me.”

Danielle has built a strong following on Instagram, where she has more than 300,000 followers. She often shares lifestyle content and discusses relationships, personal values and social issues.
