“Pursue success first, let love follow” – Reno Omokri urges men

By Oluwapelumi Oluwayemi

Controversial social commentator Reno Omokri has advised men against actively seeking love.

In a recent Instagram post, he argued that prioritizing love over financial success is misguided.

Omokri suggested that men should first focus on achieving financial stability and success.

According to him, once men attain these goals, love will naturally find its way to them.

He emphasized that qualities like character are truly revealed through financial circumstances, not during times of financial hardship.

Omokri urged men to pursue wealth legally rather than seeking validation through relationships during periods of financial struggle.

He wrote: ‘’Men should not look for love. That is putting the cart before the horse. Males should look for money and success.

“When they get it, love will look for them. Salt and sugar look alike, but you will never find ants looking for salt. They only look for sugar. Forget about the utopian romantic notion that it is when you are broke that you can know if a girl truly loves you. It is not true. What can a girl love about you when you are broke? Your character?

“Are you aware that your true character is actually revealed by money? Even you do not know your real character when you are broke. Can’t you see how humble people are when they are broke? That is not genuine humility.

“A girl can be attracted to you when you are broke. But it is only when you have made money that the real you will come out. And anybody who does not know the real you cannot really love you! Stop consoling yourself with broke love. Go and make money. But make it legally!”
