According to her, young adults who have not secured property by that age are not doing enough with their lives.
Her statement, shared on X (formerly Twitter), suggested that the benchmark for measuring success should include acquiring real estate before mid-twenties. The post immediately attracted wide attention, generating thousands of impressions within hours.
She stressed that adulthood comes with responsibility, and financial independence should be a priority. To her, owning a house at 24 was a sign of discipline, vision, and seriousness in life’s pursuit.
Owning a car is non-negotiable
The poster went further to add that at 24, it is unacceptable not to own a car. She argued that mobility is a key indicator of progress, and those without personal vehicles at that age may need to rethink their approach to life.
According to her, life at 24 should not be spent depending on public transport or family support. She implied that driving one’s own car was both a necessity and a marker of achievement.
In addition, she stated that a person without land or any tangible asset by that age is wasting their potential. She advised young adults to urgently “find something meaningful to do” if they fall into that category.
Nigerians react with mixed opinions
Her post did not go unchallenged, as many users on the platform expressed displeasure, calling her statement unrealistic and insensitive.
Others criticised her for overlooking the struggles of ordinary Nigerians battling inflation, unemployment, and high living costs. Below are some of the reactions:
dokitawaa replied: “Pressure wey go make steal, get high blood pressure, and do crazy things resist it with all your might.”
ground responded: “Girl, you don’t have front hair.”
Sir_Kh asked: “At 24? When will you graduate, start working and make money to have all these things she is saying? Breastfeeding children for 1.5yrs is very good, it helps their brain and speech development.”
eazitechh observed: “The wisest has spoken. Coming from someone that’s probably still at her parents’ house.”
ifeanyimbakogu stated: “Just because you had a small push and got richer than your peer does not mean they are useless or not hustling. Success is more of luck than hard work.”
