Reality TV star Kiddwaya has sparked controversy after offering advice to a university student seeking to overcome poverty.
The Big Brother Naija star responded to a fan’s concerns during a recent Q&A session, where the student expressed anxiety about life after graduation.
“How do I break out of poverty as a uni student? I am in my final lap, and life outside school is something I really fear,” the student’s question read.
In his response, Kiddwaya emphasized the importance of changing one’s mindset to escape poverty.
He argued that the first step is to break free from a “poverty mindset,” asserting that negative beliefs can become a self-fulfilling prophecy.
According to Kiddwaya, the issue lies in people believing that they are poor, which then becomes their reality.
However, Kiddwaya’s remarks were met with criticism from netizens, many of whom expressed their thoughts on his advice.
