Kenyan digital creator Gloria Ntazola has ignited intense online discussion after posting a series of strongly worded Instagram Stories urging women to rethink relationships, marriage, and financial dependence.
Her messages—direct, unapologetic and confrontational—have been widely shared, drawing both praise and criticism across social platforms.
“Quit Getting Married and Focusing on Those Stupid Relationships”
In her posts, Ntzola openly discourages women from prioritizing romantic partnerships over personal growth.
She wrote , “Quit getting married and focusing on those stupid relationships”—a statement that set the tone for her broader argument about women’s ambitions being derailed by societal expectations.
Ntazola adds that many women sacrifice their dreams for relationships that do not support their development. She urges them to redirect their energy, stating, “Try work on your dreams please.”
Her comments also take aim at Kenyan men, whom she accuses of discouraging women from thriving. She wrote, “Many Kenyan men hold women back,” and later intensifies the critique, claiming, “Most of Kenyan men are weak men they believe women should rejoice in misery and seat at the bottom.”

In another post, she argues that some men resent successful women: “They hate to see girls drive nice cars, work on their careers and live a good life.” She concludes the section with a warning: “Most of Kenyan men are terrible. Please watch yourself.”
“Very Small Cash”: Ntazola Rejects Allowances as Real Security
One of her most widely circulated statements came as a response to a follower who said she receives a monthly allowance of KSh 750,000 (about 5,000 USD) from her husband and believes women should not “hustle.”
Ntzola dismissed the allowance, writing, “That’s very small cash cnt give u security unless you have all his properties and savings on your name.”
She further described the KSh 750,000 allowance as “very small cash,” emphasizing that such financial support does not guarantee long-term stability.
Her stance highlights her belief that true security comes from women owning assets and generating their own income rather than relying on their partners.
“Your Little Job and Little Salary Is Your Security”
In another set of IG Stories, Ntazola turned her focus to the emotional strain of toxic marriages.
She encourages women to maintain their independence even while in relationships, writing, “Get into everything with a man but don't make him your whole personality. You can still work and make some money as a married woman.”
She reinforces the importance of financial autonomy by stating, “Your little job and little salary is your security.”
Ntazola also criticizes women who feel trapped in unhealthy marriages, explaining, “You taking too much disrespect because you scared to walk away from that toxic marriage.” According to her, financial independence offers the freedom to leave harmful situations: “If you had your own money things will be better and very different.”
While many women online have echoed Ntzola’s message of empowerment, others argue that her generalizations about Kenyan men are inflammatory.
Nonetheless, her IG Stories have sparked a timely conversation about autonomy, modern relationships and the need for women to cultivate independence—both emotional and financial.
