Nollywood actor and media personality, Chinedu Ani Emmanuel, popularly known as Nedu, has berated ladies who call themselves “independent” but depend on men to foot their bills.

He said most of the so-called “independent ladies” are mistresses of married men who sponsor their flashy lifestyles.

The OAP stated this on the latest episode of The Honest Bunch audiovisual podcast co-hosted by him.

He said, “Forget all this one that ladies are saying, ‘I’m independent’. My aunty, for you to open that shop, you collected money from five different men. And you are calling yourself independent. You are not.

“You should not be in that category. There are hard working ladies who toil and hustle for contracts. And when people want to disturb them, ‘You’ll have to sleep with me.’ They walk out of the office.”
