“I see you different if you send Opay acct” – BBN Ka3na

• The reality TV star expressed her change in perspective after receiving an OPAY account.

• Her statement perpetuated the harmful stereotype that OPay users are inferior or impoverished, leading to widespread criticism.

BBNaija star Ka3na has ignited controversy on social media following a provocative post on her Instagram story.

The reality television personality stated, “Soon as you send me an OPAY account, I start viewing you differently!”

This remark has been criticized for reinforcing the damaging stereotype that users of OPay are of lesser status or financially disadvantaged, resulting in significant backlash.

Nigerians expressed their disapproval on social media, characterizing Ka3na’s comment as elitist, classist, and offensive. Many contended that her statement perpetuates negative stereotypes regarding financial status and diminishes the value of those who utilize OPay.

Critics highlighted that an individual’s financial situation should not dictate the nature of relationships or the level of respect afforded to them. Conversely, some of Ka3na’s supporters defended her by suggesting that her comment was intended as a joke or a reflection of personal preference.

In other news, Reality television personality Tacha has addressed a comment made by a fan who claimed that men are easily obtainable.

In a discussion on X, Tacha acknowledged that while men might be readily accessible, finding a genuinely good man is a challenging endeavor.

The lady had claimed, “Being single is a choice for women, there’s no such thing as she can’t get a man.

A man is by far the easiest thing to get.😏”

Reacting, Tacha wrote:

“Got you, but yea finding a good man isn’t as simple as some make it seem, but being single is deff a choice. It’s not that a woman ‘can’t’ get a man—come on, men are everywhere! But a man who genuinely adds value? Now that’s different. Women know their worth, and sometimes, staying single is the best way to keep our standards where they should be.”
