Isime also explained that although love can be experienced without financial input, being financially independent adds to the ease and happiness that couples feel.
“Marriage is not a poverty alleviation scheme but I don’t believe marrying a poor man can make you happy. When rent is due, school fees can’t be paid and there is no food in the house, it is difficult to have a fantastic life. I am not saying there is no love without money. But love and fantastic life are not the same,” she said.
