A young Nigerian lady has gone viral on social media after she publicly shared her disappointment over her ex-boyfriend’s actions following their breakup. What upset her? He removed his ATM card from her Chowdeck account, which meant she could no longer order food using his money.
In her emotional and somewhat humorous post, she asked, “So we break up, make I no chop?” This sentence, written in Nigerian Pidgin English, translates to: “So just because we broke up, I shouldn’t eat anymore?”
The post quickly caught attention online, with many people reacting in different ways. Some users found the statement funny and laughed at her boldness. Others, however, felt she had no right to expect her ex to continue paying for her meals after the relationship had ended.
According to some online comments, when a romantic relationship is over, things like shared subscriptions, passwords, and payment methods should also come to an end. “Once it’s over, all the benefits should stop too,” one user wrote.
But there were also people who supported her. They said her comment was probably just her way of dealing with the emotional side of the breakup. “She’s just expressing her pain through humor,” someone added.
Breakups are often messy, and this story is just another reminder of how relationships — and what comes after them — can stir up all kinds of emotions and conversations, especially online.
