A Nigerian lady, @pretty.single10 on TikTok, has taken a swipe at ladies who buy expensive wigs while their mothers live in penury.
In a video she posted online, she regretted that some women whose mothers are living in a room and palour that has its toilet outside spend N1.5 million on wigs.

@pretty.single10 asked who they are trying to impress with an extravagant lifestyle instead of them assisting their parents financially.
“You will buy hair N800,000, N1.5 million but your mother is staying in a room and parlour that has its toilet outside.
“The worst part is that you are staying there with your mum and also eating the small food she is supposed to manage with your siblings without supporting financially.

“Most of you will enter flight to travel around but your mother is selling akara and using public toilet. And you will still call yourself big girl on Instagram. Who are you impressing? You should be impressing your family,” she said.
