Interviewer: We just learnt that you will be getting married soon to
your new boyfriend who happens to come from Benin, Edo state. Why are so
many Nollywood female starts getting snapped up by Benin or men from
Edo state.
Tonto Dike: First of all, it is nobody's business where my fiance is from. That out of the way, yes Benin men are great and very understanding. They are not sitting and judging you unlike an Igbo man that will want to be poke-nosing in everything you do. You make your money and the Edo man is not interested in your personal affairs. If I keep waiting for an Igbo man I will just end up like Genevieve Nnaji which is eternally single.

Steve Jones:
Yes because, no igbo man will marry a woman that dont have respect for her coleagues.We all know that GENEVIEVE is not yet married, but must you say it to justify your decission to marry an Edo man? if u decide to marry from any part of the world,is your life and God knows when he will provide husband for her so u better call urself to order.How i wish GENEVIEVE will not react to this ur comment,so that you will see what is maturity in a celebrity.

Steve Jones she said edo men don't care what their wives do...that their wives' personal affairs is not their busines and foolish edo man applauded such rubbish?...so as long as the money keeps rolling in from the woman, the edo man doesn't care...and after some bastards will say igbo men love money...imagine such lazy, lame and servitude stereotype she just placed on edo men...quite revealing...even if the wife sleeps around, let her bring the cash, no wahala...no wonder their women are all over europe and latin america prostituting and sending money back to their husbands...damning...
