Reality TV star Phyna has reacted to a viral statement attributed to Tosin Eniolorunda regarding recruitment challenges at Moniepoint.
The debate started after claims surfaced online alleging that the fintech company was struggling to fill more than 500 vacant roles due to skill gaps among Nigerian applicants.
Reacting to the discussion, Phyna questioned salary structures and the current economic realities facing young Nigerians.
According to her, many young people now earn more through social media platforms than they would from some corporate jobs.
She argued that low wages and rising living costs are major reasons many Nigerians are unwilling to take certain roles.
The reality star also rejected suggestions that Nigerians lack intelligence or competence.
She stated that many qualified individuals have abandoned their professional careers because of poor economic conditions.
Phyna revealed that she studied engineering and said she would consider returning to the corporate sector if conditions in the country improve.
Her comments have added to the wider conversation around employment, wages, and talent retention in Nigeria’s tech industry.
The issue has continued to generate mixed reactions online, with some supporting the argument about inadequate pay while others insist that skill gaps remain a serious challenge in the labour market.
Industry discussions around employability, workplace conditions, and salary expectations have intensified in recent years as Nigeria’s tech ecosystem continues to expand.
