A Nigerian man has taken to Twitter to state that a law should be enforced in the country to prevent wealthy and affluent people from getting married among their circle.

The man identified on Twitter as Sarki @Waspapping_ said even if it is in a small measure, such law will help to eradicate poverty in the country.

He Tweeted;

”There should be a law in this country forbidding rich people from getting married to rich people. I honestly think it will play a part in eradicating poverty in this country, no matter how small.”
