A South African woman’s marriage to a Bangladeshi national for a reported R300 per month has ignited backlash across social media. The woman claims that the marriage has led to complications, particularly with receiving social grants for her children due to the surname she adopted after the marriage.
Many in the online community are furious about the situation, with some questioning the woman’s motivations and the ethics of entering a marriage for financial reasons. The incident has raised concerns about the exploitation of South Africa’s welfare system.
This controversy has sparked a broader conversation about the practice of marrying foreigners for financial benefits, highlighting the potential negative impact on both individuals and the country.
