Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh has called on Christian men to invest more effort into pursuing women, moving beyond relying solely on spiritual declarations. In a video shared on social media, she questioned why some church brothers believe that saying 'God told me you are my wife' is sufficient for courtship.
Using Spiritual Language Should Not Replace Intentional Courtship
Tonto Dikeh argued that using spiritual language should not replace intentional and practical efforts in relationships. She referenced biblical examples to support her point, stating that true pursuit requires effort, honour, and practical investment. According to her, men should communicate better, buy flowers, plan proper dates, and make women feel cherished instead of expecting relationships to thrive on prophecies alone.
Christian Sisters Deserve Romance and Thoughtful Gestures
The actress emphasised that Christian sisters also deserve romance, thoughtful gestures, and intentional love. She expressed frustration with the overuse of spiritual justifications, saying, 'We're tired of hearing "God said." Go and buy flowers. Plan that date.' Her comments have sparked discussions online about the balance between faith and practical actions in Christian dating.
