Rechael Okonkwo, a talented Nigerian actress known as Nkoli, recently found herself on the receiving end of some lighthearted teasing from her colleague Zubby Michael on a movie set. In the playful exchange, Zubby jokingly poked fun at Rechael's impressive wealth, suggesting that her many properties and luxurious cars might be scaring off potential suitors. His cheeky comments included: "Lagos big girl. Landlady. These ones don scare husbands away. She has bought a house, buy cars..who wants to marry you?" Zubby also humorously wondered, "You buy house, buy G-Wagon, what will your boyfriend now buy?"
But Rechael wasn't about to let Zubby get away with his teasing without a witty comeback. In a quick-witted response, she explained that she's not in a rush to get married and is instead focusing on finding herself and living a purposeful life. Her dream is to meet a man who has also found himself and is living a meaningful existence. Rechael's philosophy is that she wants to be "purposeful before partnership," and she's not interested in a relationship that might be motivated by the desire to alleviate poverty. In a clever retort, she also pointed out that if success really scares off men, then she should have been married a long time ago – after all, she used to earn a living by roasting corn and dancing.
