A young Nigerian man seeks advice on investing his N26 million inheritance amid a N7M loan request from his three-month relationship.
However, his predicament worsened when his three-month girlfriend requested a loan of N7 million from the funds.
The anonymous man reached out to an influencer @Skolex5 on X, who shared his concerns with the public. According to him, he is torn between Japa abroad or investing his inheritance wisely. However, his girlfriend’s request for a loan has added to his confusion.
In his words:
“I got an inheritance of 26m, should I japa or invest? My gf of 3 months is already saying I should borrow her 7m. What should I do?”

Many social media users have since responded to the post in a variety of ways, questioning his girlfriend’s intentions and cautioning him to be careful with his money. Others suggested that he put his future first and seek expert financial advice before making any significant choices.
@DamilareOdulesi : she’s going to ruin you. She will never return that money and that would be the beginning of your troubles. If you got it by inheritance, it means someone kept it for you. Think of investing it too and make it yield profit. Spend from the profit not the capital. Dump her ASAP.”
@Sunshades1212 : “Borrow your girlfriend N7m then invest the remaining N19m in her hair and lashes business. Dem tie your umbilical cord for your village. Ozuor!!”
@Amy_beke: You don’t need advice because you go still give her the money 😂
@jonehmk: Do not borrow her any kobo. Fixed like 20m for now & start investing on palm oil and grain storage & reselling!
@Iamkennybabs: Lol. Block the gf first. Lock the money in TBills for a year and collect the interest upfront. Use the interest to do feasibility on what you can do. You have 12 months to plan, research, weigh options and decide.
@McK1nzy_: Surprise her. Lend her 13m keep 13 just to show how much you love her. Personally I don’t support lending and borrowing in a relationship because what is stopping you from actually dashing her the money
@sr_signals: He should give his GF 25.7m instead of just 7m. Then use the remaining 300k to take her out on a date since he’s so smart. She will value, respect and cherish him. She’ll never leave him.
