Nollywood actress, Didi Ekanem has urged women to make their own money and desist from relying on men.
Didi Ekanem admonished this during an interview on Sunday Scoop.
The businesswoman revealed her happiness that her money is enough to sustain her and has helped her to live within her earnings.
Ekanem said, āIt is important for a woman to work for her money. There is no point for any woman to depend on a man for money. I donāt know how to ask for favours and I refuse to ask men for money. I am happy that my money sustains me. It has helped me to live within my means.ā

Recall that the actress suffered a huge loss last year when she lost her stock in a fire incident at her house.
Ekanem posted a series of videos of the burning house on her Instagram page wherein she was seen crying profusely about the situation.
Looking so helpless, she mentioned that the fire had consumed everything she has worked for in Lagos.
However, Ekanem has now recovered from the loss and said āIt all boils down to the need to work hard and make oneās money. Some persons were asking why I cried and put up pictures (of the burnt house) on Instagram.
“They said I was chasing clout. But, one week after, I got a new apartment, and some people started talking again. I then said to myself, āMy house got burnt, not my account balanceā. It was easy for me to come out of it because I had savings.ā
