Toyin Lawani and her husband, Segun Wealth, are just having fun - Analyst
In a chat with Legit.ng, a social media analyst who requested anonymity shared his thoughts on the backlash, explaining the strategy behind such celebrity posts.
He stated:
"Nigerians often take things too personally when it comes to traditional gender roles in marriage. Toyin Lawani and her husband understand the business of social media very well, and they know the kind of content that will trigger conversations online. In the entertainment industry, attention is currency. People are busy fighting and dropping angry comments over a man kneeling to serve his wife, forgetting that the couple is just catching a cruise and enjoying the engagement it brings to their brand."
