    1. That babe is just a thief, yesca big one @ that. 200k one child a month and it's not enough haba now. Even me of family of 6 oh na 200k be my monthly allowance and i dey get enough money left at the end of the month. Feeding is not really an issue of you buy in bill, it's only bills that eat up money. In this period of recession one has to adjust. Me na even ph i dey stay way cost like 2morrow no dey. I no the different prizes of my food items in various supermarket, so i no were to go to pick up what and save cost. Places like spar i hardly shop there, too expensive. Everyday is also getting same. There are smaller supèmarket that sells same things @ reduce cost. Places like welcome you etc. So madam I repeat you are a big thief ole barawo woman.

    1. Yori Yori princess, not all men wants their wife to work dear, some want u to stay at home so u can take care of the kids while they take care of the bills cause they are capable enough! I fought hard to start up my biz cause my husband never wanted me too do anything and he place me on monthly salary which I accepted at 4st but I later got bored staying at home, he took the grace of God and some family members intervention before I was allowed too go back to Wat I was so passionate about. We shouldn't blame the women all the time!

    2. Of course, I want to work but no job out there,after giving birth, I intend to start frozen food business. My husband salary is not much at all but he manages to give me 5k/month and I still save out of it. The worst is not to make my hair or buy body cream, I sha manage it and am very hopeful that my business will make way for me. My mother worked and she spent on us, so why must I always depend on husband before buying ordinary 50naira salt? Sometimes, things don't turn out the way one expects but I pray God will lift my family too up financially
      Amen

  5. Hmmm....
    Stella she's a baby mama and I guess that's the means she's using to 'tax' her baby daddy.
    She can't spend the whole money on the child alone...mbanunu
    Na them sabi oh!,if the baby daddy is comfortable paying her 200k monthly,let him do it nah..
    If I'm in her shoes,I'll be saving that allowance for the rainy day.

    1. You didn't read the part that the baby daddy stopped giving her money and started buying everything the daughter needs himself. The guy now days it takes less than 50k a month. She isn't getting the money again.

  7. Wawuuuuu.....this is not a wife o...from the chats she is a baby mama if not why would she ask alibaba to verify from single mothers

    Serves the man right, put your dick in your pants ,,naaaa.they would get foolish girls pregnant and say they can't marry..why bed a lady you can't wife in the first place.?

    This lady is stupid.. Serves her right baba Toyosi should continue shopping for his kid..she turned the lil girl to job and she is not smart to even invest some of the money. She is settling friends in .life of a prostitute.
    Some people earn less than 200k and they cater to a family of a husband wife and 2 kids..does the 3 year old consume a safari?

    Ladies if you can't be independent to opt to be willful baby mamas..some single mothers are as a result of death of spouse or even divorce. That I can understand. But to get pregnant and hope he marries you .I don't subscribe to that. Before sex exhaust all preventive measure as regards pregnacy and diseases then if one gets pregnant keep it and get some sense. I am prolife . i hate abortion.

She is not grateful for what life has given her. I support my husband 100% with what I earn except I dont have. They are also my children.

We have first class,second class,3rd class citizens including the lowest class! U don't expect first and second class peeps to manage 200k in amonth never ! Except feeding money is excluded if not that amount ain't enough. How much is 200k in dollars again? If the wife is working she can add has and manage it.

    2. Seems you didn't read it at all. The money is upkeep for the child, they aren't married. And why do you talk of dollar equivalent? This is Nigeria and the vast majority don't earn in foreign currency. That amount is what some families get a month and they're surviving.

  12. I am a woman, I think just sitting there waiting for monthly alawi b4 things get done in the house is utterly disgusting. Women/young girls should learn how to empower themselves financially. Don't just sit there waiting for the man, do or strive to do something lucrative. Some women use this as an excuse to cause wahala in their marriages and when husband starts to drift away, alas the chronicles folder would be full. It just stifles the man, he feels choked up. Don't get me wrong, I believe the husband is head of household, provider etc. But then, the woman is the helper. You can manage what is given to even surprise the husband the next month. It's not just 'give me' 'give me' all the time. It's boring,this is one of the things that would put out the flame of marriage.


    That's why, beauty,'light skinned' into marriage does not cut it. If that's all some women/girls have to offer...is no longer en vogue.

    In the same light, how many women do gift their husbands substantially? Especially the young girls, who have the mindset of take, take, take. How would some guy feel you as wife material sef? It's not just beauty oo. That's why some would be cussing somebody choice of a wife.. she no fine sef..etc. You know what? The guy looked in the inside, the heart, to make that choice.

  15. It beats my imagination why a woman will want to depend on a man, be it hubby or bf for everything that has to Do with cash and expenses. I just don't get it. Even if she isn't working, there are lots of business she can do to make money. In as much as spending hubbys money is my constitutional right and gives me pleasure, I can't let him shoulder every single responsibility in the home, when I'm not a cripple or an illiterate. Women should stop this nonsense, your husband won't even respect you if you can't contribute anything in the home.

  19. I don't understand. Even if she is a baby mama like some people have insinuated as bad as things are who spends N200k on a 3 year old for monthly upkeep. And I am a married man with even grown up kids. It's a big lie that a baby girl needs is more than that of a boy. At that tender age it's almost the same. What cosmetics does a 3year old girl need than the usual cream and powder which also a boy needs. The only difference is the hair making which is more frequent that the boy. She is just a lazy,jobless and careless mother. If she works then she will appreciate what her man is giving her. She should be able to even save some in case of rainy days. It's women like this that give a man a bad name by asking for the list of her needs and shopping for it and giving her. My brother in law's wife was once like that so I told him to ask the wife to do a list of everything she needs and he gives his office assistance who is a woman the money to shop for him. And even gives her good tips. He discovered that he was now spending less than a quarter of what he use to give her. Na she come knee beg him and ask for forgiveness. Some women need to be disciplined to know that your man is not suppose to go bankrupt because of house upkeep allowance.

    4. Evil man. You don't need to tell us you are poor because only poor men, be it financial or mental, will do what you did. How can you advice him to give money to another woman to shop for his wife??? Gosh! You are both sick.

      Delete
    5. Anon 16:38. You are the ode. Some families are close and not like your disjointed family. Didn't stick my nose he came for advice just like the poster is asking for. And rather than let the matter turn to something else he tried to see things for himself. And he is a grown man to be going around shopping for groceries. It's idiots like you that will see such a man buying things like groceries and start calling him names.
      @Anon 18:34... Read the post through again. It's about a way forward to a situation not a permanent solution. Why is the poster friend buying things by himself. He just wanted to make a point that the woman is being wasteful. Some families don't earn as mush as that and they still save. Even if she is a full housewife can't she still save part of it. It's upkeep money not money for rent, school fees or major bills.
      Guess a lot of people on this blog are numbskulls who just comment without thinking and have never had a life but come her to form know it all.

  21. Stella, no mind d girl. Thou, I wait on oga, for monthly allowance. With 3kids and our help he gives a 100k and still supports other things, he is the busy type and he wants a stay at home wife, I fought it, talked even family members got involve at least if is a shop to support, but he refuse. And I don't bug my life abeg. But I pity him, is not easy, I manage very well and save some amount everymonth. Just that is like no much progress in the family, because I have to wait on him for everything. He is trying for real. Me, I don't joke with the little I save ooh. I know soonest God will touch his heart and I will start doing something.

  22. Ohhhh I agree with you. It was in the 80s, 90s, that men dont want women to do anything but it is rare for now. Congrats to you. You did well

  23. Even if she's a baby mama, there are standards. If she is the type that flies 1st class for example, and going on a trip she needs the baby daddy to buy 1st class ticket for his child to travel with her, he shouldn't flinch.
    There are millions of families that depends on 200k monthly and there are people who spends 200k and more daily.....one size doesn't fit all. No one should think it impossible for a child to spend that much monthly.

    3. Please chiclahot I have few questions for you 1. Do you live in Lagos? 2. How much goes to the lesson fees for 3 kids monthly? Have you thought of how much it would have cost you if you were the one to stock the house with food, fuel for gen, transporting fuel to take the kids to and from school? Gas, clothing, diaper, hair, moisturizer, soap, laundry, tv subscription, weekend treats? You make soup and stew for 6k every week, i.e. 24k for that in a month and yet you sound like all of these expenses is from your 30k+your hubby 30k contribution. And even after all that expenses you still get to save right? I hear ya

    4. Kai. I need to learn from you for the future. Wise woman. I'm sure your kids will still be shinny and looking ajeboish. Stay blessed.

  28. It's possible jare.
    How much is 200k in this present naija? Yes some people spend earn less than that and have 4 kids true but we all have different standards of living. Some people only go to shoprite during the festive period while some shop there weekly.
    Let's try to break it down:

    (1) PETROL: 1500(Let's say overnight from 7-7) 1500*30= 45,000.

    (2) UBER: School runs daily 1200*20=24,000.

    (3)FOOD: 50,000 (Kids food are more expensive than adults cos a kid must have a balanced diet)

    (4) Ijekuje: 15,000 (cold stone icecream with waffles is approx 1500)

    (5) General flexing:: Cinema (twice a month 2000) etc... let's say 5000.

    (6) Miscellaneous Hair (500*4 =2000 (depends on where they live, some salons charge 1k for kids hair on the island)), Lotion (Aveeno baby is around 5000), Hair products 2000.

    (7) Mummy I want that toy, I want this is want that 5000.

    (8) General transportation 10000.

    Total: 163k
    I don't think 37k is too much for her to keep LOL

  30. Stella. Love you, love your blog but the way you introduced this topic is arrogant by saying 'I hope you are not'. So what if they are? You have to wear people's shoes to know where they are coming from. Some women depend on their husbands because the children are little and need attention especially with all these stories of demonic househelps. Some lost their jobs and haven't got another yet. If you ask many women in this situation they do not want to be a liability. First time commenting in 3 years.
