• A life coach and author, Ochigbe Oleju Kate, has said she can't marry any man who is not a worker in his church or does not believe in tithing
• She opined that many women are in the wrong marriages and relationships because their partners buy them bone-straight hair
• Kate maintained that she would do a thorough background check on the stewardship of any man who would seek her hand in marriage

Ochigbe Oleju Kate, a life coach, has stated that she won't say yes to any man who is not serving in any department in his church or does not believe in paying tithes.

The Nigerian lady made the statement during what appeared to be a podcast discussion.

Kate, an author, claimed many women are in the wrong marriages and relationships because their partners buy them bone-straight hair after beating them.

She reiterated that she would conduct a proper church background check on any man who seeks her hand in marriage. In her words:

"See, please, if you are not serving in a department in your church or you are not serving as a steward anywhere, you can't marry me. If you don't believe in tithes as a man, I don't believe I am your wife.

"I know some of you will come and rant under my comments section, but be careful, they don't talk anyhow under my comments section. Do you understand? See, I have majored on what should major in my life. Ladies, I am telling you, be sure that the first thing you are looking out for...Because that is why most of you are in wrong marriages, most of you are in wrong relationships. They are beating you and buying you bone straight. And they are beating you anyhow. See, there is what we call accountability

"Before I marry you as a man, I will...Your name of church, where are you serving, I will go and ask, in your church, even while you tell me."

A short clip of her assertion was shared on X (formerly Twitter) and sparked a debate on the social media platform.
