Blame the Deceiver, Not the Victim – Beverly Osu’s New Take on Bad Relationships
Nollywood star Beverly Osu has called out society’s habit of shaming people for choosing the “wrong” partner while ignoring those who pretend to be someone they’re not. In a recent Instagram story, she urged us to stop blaming trusting individuals and start holding manipulative partners accountable. On a movie set with colleague Lizzy, she argued that respect in marriage often follows financial balance and insisted she would only marry a man wealthier than herself. Other industry voices have joined the conversation. Kemi Afolabi warned couples to protect their well-being in any bond, while Opeyemi Aiyeola stressed the importance of using one’s head as well as the heart. Yewande Adekoya recommended pre-marital personality tests and psychological evaluations to gauge compatibility. Socialite Yhemo Lee added that constant fault-finding and failure to appreciate sacrifices can breed resentment. His reminder: mutual respect and gratitude are essential for lasting connections.
