During a recent livestream, the outspoken community leader explained that despite its title, “Date With the Doctor,” the show is not a dating series.

“I just wanted to come on here right now to clarify the ‘Date with the Doctor’ reality show,” he told viewers. “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.”

According to Dr. Umar, the series will give Black women an opportunity to showcase their businesses and promote their brands in a positive way. He emphasized that the project is designed to be uplifting and tasteful, not centered on romance.

“I am not looking for a wife. The ancestors will send them to me when the time is right,” he said, making it clear that the focus is on empowerment, not matchmaking.

There is one requirement for women who want to participate: they must be entrepreneurs.

“I want Black women to become entrepreneurs so we can target homelessness, reduce prostitution, and create opportunities,” he explained.

It’s unclear when he plans to begin filming or which platform the show will be available on.
