A Nigerian man has ignited widespread debate on social media after publicly lamenting what he described as a drastic change in his wife’s appearance following their marriage.
In a viral post, the man claimed that his wife looked “glowing” and well put together before they tied the knot, but alleged that her appearance changed shortly after the wedding. Expressing his disappointment, he bluntly stated, “This is not what I ordered. My wife na scammer.”
According to him, his wife made more effort with her looks during their courtship, describing her as “hot” and radiant at the time. He suggested that he only realized after marriage that the version of her he fell in love with was, in his words, “a scam.”
The comment quickly gained traction online, drawing thousands of reactions and sparking heated discussions across social media platforms. Many users criticized the man, accusing him of marrying solely for physical appearance and failing to understand the realities and pressures that can come with marriage.
Others, however, defended his frustration, arguing that maintaining self-care in marriage is important and that couples should continue to make effort for each other even after the wedding.
As the debate rages on, the incident has once again highlighted ongoing conversations around beauty standards, expectations in marriage, and the pressure placed on women to maintain certain appearances long after saying “I do.”
