“People Who Shouldn’t Be Talking About Relationships Are Now Coaches” BBNaija’s Uriel Fires Back at Reno Omokri, Promotes Female Independence

Former Big Brother Naija housemate, Uriel Oputa, has made headlines after throwing what many consider a direct jab at Reno Omokri and others who frequently share controversial relationship advice online. In a bold Instagram post, Uriel expressed frustration over people she believes have no moral or experiential ground to give relationship guidance suddenly becoming self-declared “relationship coaches.”

A Subtle Yet Sharp Swipe

Though she didn’t mention Reno Omokri by name initially, Uriel’s message was laced with pointed remarks that lined up with Omokri’s recent comments on women, marriage, and submission. According to her, some of these so-called experts are either battling personal issues in their own relationships or have little to no real understanding of what modern relationships require , especially from a woman’s point of view.

Women Must Be Financially Independent, Uriel Says

Beyond calling out unqualified voices in the relationship space, Uriel emphasized a deeper message: the importance of women being financially independent. She stressed that modern women should not base their lives or future solely on getting married or being taken care of by a man. Instead, they should aim to build their own careers, secure their own finances, and be emotionally and mentally stable.

She argued that this form of independence doesn’t just empower women, but also helps them make better relationship choices — not out of desperation or survival, but from a place of strength and clarity.

Social Media Reacts: Divided Opinions

As expected, social media users quickly weighed in on the matter. Some praised Uriel for speaking up and defending women against outdated advice often laced with patriarchy. Others, especially fans of Reno Omokri, criticized her for taking things personally and accused her of misinterpreting his messages.

Nonetheless, many agreed that there’s a growing trend of people with questionable backgrounds giving relationship advice without being qualified to do so.

The Rise of ‘Unqualified Coaches’

Uriel’s criticism highlights a broader concern , the rise of social media “coaches” and “gurus” who, despite lacking training or proven success, have large platforms to influence others. She advocates for people, especially young women, to be discerning about who they listen to when it comes to sensitive life matters like love, marriage, and dating.

Final Thoughts: Choose Wisdom Over Noise

While everyone is entitled to their opinion, Uriel reminds her followers that not all advice is good advice. In her words, the loudest voices online aren’t always the wisest. She urges women to seek guidance from those who are genuine, experienced, and invested in seeing them grow , not just from those seeking clout or controversy.
