‘Fear Lagos men’: Woman says date expected her to follow him home after ₦180k dinner

A Nigerian woman has described an uncomfortable encounter with a man who, she says, assumed she would accompany him home after a costly date. During an episode of the Whotpodcast, she said the man spent more than ₦180,000 on their dinner date and then drove toward his residence rather than taking her to her own home. She declined to go inside with him. According to her account, she told him she would not visit his house that night. He then stopped the car and asked her to request an Uber, saying he could not drive her home. She noted that he had spent over ₦180,000 on the outing and suggested that this might have led him to believe she would go home with him automatically. Her Uber had not yet arrived when he drove away, she said. She said the money he spent may have shaped his expectations, but she insisted that paying for a date did not obligate her to follow him home. The woman’s story has drawn reactions online, with social media users discussing whether spending heavily on a date should create any expectation of intimacy. Her remarks were shared in a video posted by WHOT Podcast.
