Former Big Brother Naija housemate Uriel Oputa has lamented after breaking her thumb over a man.
Sharing a screenshot of her broken thumb, she said she decided to go through her DMs the other day because people kept saying, “Maybe she is too picky”.
Uriel said she opened a message and decided to hear the man, who made it known that he has an interest in her but doesn’t have the money to give her what she wants.
The reality star said her finger hit block so fast, she nearly dislocated her thumb.
“I decided to go through my DMs the other day because people keep saying, ‘Maybe you’re too picky’.
So I opened a message that started with:
Hi Uriel, I’ve admired you for years. You’re beautiful. I can love you in more ways than you’ve ever been loved.
I said, Okay. Let’s hear him out.
Then this man continued:
I don’t have any money, and I can’t give you the things you want…
My finger hit the block so fast I nearly dislocated my thumb.
In this economy?
I block him in Jesus’ name”.

While reacting to a viral video of Cardi B with Nigerian goalkeeper, Maduka Okoye, Uriel asked if women don’t spend time healing after relationships. She questioned what the better approach is- healing or being open to new love and pondered if healing now means living our life and moving forward.
In an interview, Uriel had cried out about Nigeria’s lack of decent men, saying it is hard to date them as they’re complicated. She recounted how her marriage desperation almost destroyed her, and touched on age shaming, noting how many women in their 30s and 40s feel like they’re expired milk.
In a previous post, the celebrity chef gave relationship advice to women, noting how she had learnt the hard way when it came to men. She noted how women put in efforts to prove they’re good girlfriends, and yet end up being ditched.
Two years ago, Uriel sent a message to her admirers, admonishing them to take a good look before reaching out to her. She stated that because she doesn’t post luxury items or flaunt extravagant trips, doesn’t mean she isn’t a buyer or an understanding babe.
In a podcast, Uriel revealed that her celebrity crush was Burnaboy, and she already had things planned in mind that he would do to her.
