After getting dragged online last week for launching his $500 “Lunch With the Doctor” program, Dr. Umar Johnson is now claiming that the idea was never about dating, but that it is an opportunity for female entrepreneurs to promote their businesses.
“I just wanted to come on here right now to clarify the ‘Date with the Doctor’ reality show. It is really a conversation platform where Black women and I will exchange views and opinions on various issues affecting the African race and Black women in particular,” he claimed in a recent livestream.
“I am not looking for a wife. The ancestors will send them to me when the time is right,” he continued, later adding, “I want Black women to become entrepreneurs so we can target homelessness, reduce prostitution, and create opportunities.”
Last week, Johnson said this of his newly launched program:
“Ladies, you gotta donate $500 to the FDMG Academy and I will take you to lunch, private lunch, any restaurant you want in the state of Delaware.”
He then went off at the men, dragging him in the comments for charging for dates.
“We gotta stop hating, brothas, ’cause if I ask your wife if she want that luncheon… If I ask your baby mom do she want that luncheon with the doctor, we know what she gon’ say.”
