Yagga/InstagramMalcom Recently Raised Similar Concerns
Yagga’s remarks also come shortly after Kenyan content creator Malcom shared his own relationship advice online.
In a separate Instagram reel, Malcom urged men to rethink relationships where support only flows in one direction.
“Look at the lady you are dating right now. Can she come through when you have a problem?”
He questioned whether some men can truly rely on their partners during difficult financial situations, arguing that relationships should involve mutual support rather than constant dependence on one person.
“Let’s say you want ten thousand urgently, and the person close to you is your lady. Can she give you ten thousand, or must you go outside looking for help from other people?”
