Reality TV star Anita “Tacha” Akide has once again set the internet ablaze with her take on modern dating. In a viral podcast clip, the outspoken media personality delivered this bold nugget of advice:
“Don’t be out there dating just one man. You need three other boyfriends in your life.”
Clarifying her stance, Tacha emphasized that she wasn’t pushing for promiscuity—but rather urging women to keep multiple “talking stages” as emotional self-protection:
“I am not saying sleep with them, but at least let it be that there are other people you are talking to, because even that person you’re talking to … the heart of man is wicked.”
Unsurprisingly, the comment devolved into a full-blown TL frenzy.
Reactions from social media ranged from savage burns to wild support:
From Linda Ikeji’s blog comment section:
“Well women 2 rugged, only dem go get 3 bfs… Really!! White lie, Nice!”
“Tacha, all your 3 boyfriends now know they’re not the only ones and you’re gaming them.”
Other users didn’t hold back:
“She should be stripped off all celebrity status… bad role model to our women.”
“Thrash.”
On the flip side, some defended her stance—or at least found humor in it:
“Very good advice. You go girl. Den no dey tell person.”
And a hilariously blunt reaction: “Ashawo tendency!”
Even mainstream platforms like Naijalog summarized the debate with clarity, noting:
Whether viewed as empowerment or chaos, Tacha’s words have once again stirred conversation — and memes — across Nigeria’s social media landscape. She remains a figure who commands attention, and this advice has proven once more why her voice is unmissable online.
