A financially troubled man is facing emotional devastation after his wife asked for permission to sleep with a wealthy chief, offering the act as a solution to their dire financial condition and inability to feed their son.
Sharing his painful reality on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), the man recounted how a debt of over ₦18 million has pushed his family to the brink.
Amid the struggle, his wife made the shocking proposal — asking for his consent to have sex with a rich man who had been persistently making offers in exchange for money.
The man, emotionally exhausted and desperate, admitted that while he finds the request deeply disturbing, he’s also contemplating divorce — not out of anger, but to free her from the bounds of marriage, should she choose that path to help their son survive.
In his words, he explained how the financial strain has been relentless. He’s sold off his belongings, tried to rescue a struggling business, and yet, they barely survive from one day to the next.
His heartbreaking confession sparked massive discussion online. While some condemned the wife’s request as disrespectful and morally wrong, others argued it was a brutal reflection of how poverty is tearing families apart.
Some users speculated that the wife may have already started seeing the chief behind his back, while others expressed empathy, saying she was just trying to rescue a sinking family.
The post has since gone viral, opening a deeper conversation on the rising desperation in relationships affected by economic hardship.
