Chizzy Alichi-Mbah, a well-known Nollywood actress, recently gave her take on comedian KieKie’s thoughts about sharing expenses with a spouse.
KieKie, also known as Bukunmi Adeaga-Ilori, created a buzz online when her advice to women about financially supporting their partners gained popularity. She emphasized the importance of both partners contributing financially when they share a home, mentioning that splitting the rent with her husband makes her feel more at ease in their home.
Reacting to her claims, Chizzy Alichi, made it known that she can never split bills with her husband regardless of how much she makes.
She wrote, “I refuse to be in this Whatsapp group, no matter how much i make, bills is for my Oga only”. See her post below:
