However, the young man who doubles as a footballer and fisherman said he believes only rich men cheat on their wives. This according to him is because they have the mean and can afford to have mistress’ aside their wives.
“I don’t cheat on my wife because I’m poor”. He answered, when quizzed whether he cheats on his wife or not.
His answer which was rather interesting made Christian Amanpour probe further about the relationship between ‘money and infidelity’
“So this is rather interesting, you did say that you don’t cheat because you are a poor person, would you say that the people who cheat are mostly the rich people who can afford to have a wife and a mistress and a girlfriend”, she asked.
“Because of their money, when you are rich you can decide to choose any woman you want, but I am a poor person I have to stay with one lady”, he said.
