“Most of the ladies I dated were too hypersensitive to external influence ” – Iyinoluwa Aboyeji

The co-founder of Andela, Iyinoluwa Aboyeji has disclosed how most of the ladies he dated in the past were very sensitive to external influence.

While sharing his dream of getting married, he disclosed that he wanted to settle down for a woman who he could be real with.

According to Iyinoluwa Aboyeji, he was looking out for a woman who was impervious to external influence.

“I can’t marry a woman whose mother will tell her; that your husband, that his car he’s driving is too old ask him to change it. Then she would come and nag me for three weeks to buy a Range Rover”, he said during an interview on The Afropolitan Podcast.

Iyinoluwa revealed how some ladies he has dated in the past are easily influenced by their parents, friends, families and the society. “These ladies had no mindset about things or whatever.
