She tweeted, “This guy in Nigeria that knows my family asked if it would be okay for him to speak to my parents about marriage and I said no. I don’t have an interest in marrying him. “He asked why and I have my reasons. He focused on the financial reason. I simply said we aren’t in the same financial place and I don’t think it’s fair on both of us. “One, I don’t want to limit my lifestyle and he shouldn’t have to be pressured to earn more. It’s just unfair for both of us imo. He asked if I would give up my work for love and I said absolutely not. I explained I love my job, it’s something that brings me happiness and makes me who I am. It’s also part of my personal brand so it simply cannot go. “He said my reasoning is not realistic. He gave me a range of his annual salary in naira which was around 100,000 – 200,000 which is fine and I said that isn’t bad. That’s what he earns and good on him. “I gave mine in naira which is 28 million – 34 million and he said I can’t earn more than my husband. “I called him insecure and he said a man is supposed to be the provider and there is nothing insecure about that. So I told him to go and provide for someone within his bracket. He can’t provide for me so he said he will report me to my family. “I don’t care if he reports me ’cause my family would legit laugh. The mentality alone is even madness. Why can’t I earn more and why would I give up that salary and work? He said women of nowadays want to be like men. Is this what Nigerian women deal with?” Am I in the wrong here. Small story. This guy in Nigeria that knows my family asked if it would be okay for him to speak to my parents about marriage and I said no. I don’t have an interest in marrying him. He asked why and I have my reasons. He focused on the financial reason — Ok Go And Bring My Purse (@RejiYates) June 6, 2023

Of course, I want a man that has someone in his family that he respects and listens to. He has to be someone who keeps to his words, and cannot be easily swayed.” Angela also revealed that she won’t allow any relatives in her home. She said; “No family member will live with me and my husband unless she (mother-in-law) is sick and is in need of attention. I am a busy woman and not the type that would sit at home to take care of anybody. I am of the opinion that in-laws living permanently with a newly-wed couple is not good.” On fake friendships in Nollywood, the actress said; “I don’t know about them. I do not keep many friends. I have just a few of them and they have all been true to me. I believe friendship should not be a one-sided thing. If we (friends) are benefiting from each other, the person won’t think I am using them.

However, that one person is doing better than the other does not mean they cannot do better later.” She had also said in the past that she would rather remain single than be in a relationship with someone who doesn’t respect her. Angela said; “I love relationships, I love love. But I’d rather remain single than be in a relationship with someone who doesn’t respect me, have my back, or support me and most importantly my career. It’s a NO! NO!. For marriage, I am going to get married to the love of my life someday. But for now, I am single as they come.”

According to him, polygamy is not as ‘pretty and nice’ as he portrays it on social media; while disclosing the numerous fights and jealousy his two wives portray at home.
This comment from the pastor comes after a follower asked if his polygamous marriage was rosy.
He said;
“I never said polygamy is easy. I mean, I live polygamy daily, I know it’s ups and down. I am not the standard of polygamy, my failures and successes do not guarantee anything to any other person out there,” he said.
“If I fail, it does not mean you will fail. I have done so many things people told me I can’t do and aced them. We live once…if you strongly believe in something, do it. At least you would have tried.”
He further said;
“Just like any family out there, we fight, and I came across a few fights! We also differ on certain issues! From simple things as naming of kids to investments! It’s a whole array of feelings! We don’t like our past, or the past! We do everything in our power to avoid the past, but this morning I realized that my past, my past with my wives have so many beautiful memories.
“Once in a while, sit alone and revisit your past with your partner, there are so many good memories over there! What is happening right now does not represent everything about you guys, at times, use your past as a spring board to love each other again! I love you Kagiso. I love you Mpho.”
