Nollywood actress Rita Dominic recently shared a humorous post on social media about how women can ask men for money using biblical-style language. The actress, who turned 49 this year, posted the message just before heading to bed.
In the post, someone posed the question of how a woman might request money from her husband in the King James Version (KJV) style. A woman named Manye Teiko Opt provided a playful response, phrasing the request in a way that mimicked the formal and poetic tone of the KJV.
Instead of referring to herself as a wife or woman, she suggested saying, “the keeper of thy home, the bearer of thy children, or the woman in whose blossom you findeth peace.”
Rita Dominic found the response so amusing that she couldn’t help but share it on her Instagram story and main page, delighting her fans with the lighthearted post.
