Award-winning Nigerian singer and songwriter, Inetimi Alfred Timaya Odon, popularly known by his stage name Timaya, has given his reasons why dating a Nigerian woman or man is pointless.
Timaya said this while revealing why he doesn’t have a Nigerian girlfriend and expressing reservations that if he were a woman, he would not date any Nigerian man.
In an interview with Beat 99.9 FM, the singer delved into the intricacies of his dating preferences.
During the interview, Timaya stated that his choice to steer clear of Nigerian relationships stem from his belief that there’s little excitement in dating someone with a similar background, upbringing, and environment.
Timaya said: “If I am a Nigerian girl, I will not date a Nigerian man. Myself right now, I can’t date a Nigerian girl. My current lover is not Nigerian.
“I can’t date a Nigerian lady because we have the same foundation; the same upbringing. The relationship go be like police and thief. The relationship will be too toxic. We go dey lie for each other too much. We won’t even have peace.”
