Nigerian online personality and entrepreneur, Adeife, has stirred massive reactions online after declaring that true feminism requires financial independence, not just online activism.
Adeife says feminism isn’t just about tweeting quotes or posting empowering messages online. Real empowerment comes from having choices, and choices often come with money.
“You can’t be a feminist if you’re broke. Money is what makes a woman powerful. You can’t be empowered without the means of empowerment, which is money.”
She explained that financial dependence is why many women stay in bad relationships, unfulfilling jobs, or stressful situations.
Adeife known for her her outspoken views on women’s empowerment, encouraged ladies to earn their own income, saying money gives the freedom to make decisions, challenge norms, and shape their lives.
Her statement has sparked mixed reactions online. Some praised her for highlighting financial independence. Others argued feminism should focus on rights and equality, not bank balances.
Whether you agree or not, Adeife has started a conversation about empowerment. Money can give women freedom and options—but the question of what feminism truly means is still very much alive.
