Nollywood actress Bukky Wright recently caused a buzz on social media with her comment about Nigerian men and how they were not ready to handle self-made women.

Bukky Wright, who confirmed she is back in the movie industry after taking a break, addressed the difficulties colleagues encounter in their relationships, particularly with Nigerian men.

The actress, while speaking with media personality Ebuka Obi-Uchendu on Channels TV, stated that many actresses struggle to find suitable partners due to their profession.

According to Wright, some men who desire actresses often have ulterior motives, other than genuine love for them.

“But unfortunately, you find that the men who have the courage to approach you as an actress are often those chasing clout or men with questionable intentions. You can’t blame the women in the industry because these are the men that approach them,” she said.

Wright stressed that when the “right” men come along, they often lack the emotional maturity to handle an independent woman.

According to the actress, many Nigerian men are not ready to embrace the independence of a self-made woman.

“Sometimes, these men get jealous over things they shouldn’t be jealous of, forgetting that they met this woman in her career—whether on screen as an actress or as a self-made woman—before they approached her.” “Nigerian men are not ready for a self-made woman. I’m sorry if it comes across as an insult, but are you truly ready for an independent woman? If you want an independent or strong woman, trust me, there are certain things you have to accept,” she said.

The Omotara Johnson star also sent a message to Nigerian men to go for women without aspirations if they wanted a partner who would completely submit to them.

@kucutooms8685:
“The same self-made women would be running after richer men…… Why are u not dating or marrying less rich men???? Stop the B.S…….”

@melas_telas:
“55% of the self-made women are sometimes arrogant and don’t submit to a man’s leading, even the real good men too. On the flip side, there are lots of insecure men who can’t handle self-made even the very lovely self-made women. This has led to many wonderful self-made/independent women becoming single because the men who can walk with them and work seamlessly with them in love, career and everything in between are very very very few and this is very bad.”
