Before you come for me, Read with an open mind.
MEN WHO DON’T WANT THEIR WIVES TO WORK, ARE EITHER FOOLISH, EGOISTIC OR WICKED.
I once lived with a woman who told me a story of how her husband loved her, provided everything for the family and made sure they never lacked anything.
They were financially comfortable, and she had no reason to worry about money. So, her husband asked her not to work, and she obliged.
Everything was beautiful until death came knocking.
The man died untimely, and everything changed.
His family took over his properties, his wife was left with almost nothing, and the children who once enjoyed a comfortable life suddenly became victims of circumstances.
Her children suffered. Their education suffered. Their standard of living collapsed…. Just because mom wasn’t doing anything tangible when death took dad.
Elegbon Agba, listen carefully.
Nobody is praying for you to die young. May you live long enough to enjoy the fruits of your labour.
But what if death comes earlier than you planned?
What if it’s not even death, but terminal disease, or permanent inability to work due to disability??
What happens to the woman you deliberately made financially dependent on you?
What happens to your children when the only source of income in the family suddenly disappears?
You claim you are protecting your wife from the stress of working, but have you considered the kind of suffering you might be preparing her for in your absence?
How do you marry a woman who has the capacity to think, work, earn, build and contribute meaningfully to society, only to reduce her entire existence to cooking, cleaning, childbirth and waiting for your monthly salary?
What exactly are you afraid of?
That she might become financially independent?
That she might no longer need to beg you for money?
Or that you might lose the financial control you have mistaken for authority?
A woman’s financial independence is not an attack on your masculinity. Her success does not reduce your value as a man.
In fact, a sensible man should be excited about the opportunities that come with having a productive woman beside him.
Imagine having a wife who contributes financially to the home.
You can save more.
You can invest more.
You can build properties together.
You can secure your children’s future.
You can plan your retirement without constantly worrying about where the next money will come from.
You can even afford to help your extended family and other people without putting your immediate family under unnecessary financial pressure.
Two capable adults building life and wealth together will often achieve more than one person carrying the entire financial burden while the other person’s potential is deliberately suppressed.
Yet, some of you men would rather struggle, borrow from your enemy, live under unnecessary pressure and die trying to prove that you are the only providers in your homes.
And the most annoying part?
You can see how your counterparts are dying like chicken !!
You are struggling to pay rent, struggling to pay school fees, struggling to meet basic family needs, yet you are preventing your wife from working because you believe a man must provide everything.
Weyrey, that is not leadership. That is ego dressed in traditional attire.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with a woman choosing to become a full-time housewife, especially when the family can comfortably afford it and her future is PROPERLY secured.
But there is everything wrong with a man deliberately frustrating his wife’s ambitions, denying her opportunities and making her financially helpless simply because he wants to feel like the head of the family.
Hello @Hibrohadey1 😂😹
Many men out there are practically killing themselves with financial responsibilities that could have been shared with their wives.
They are constantly under pressure, emotionally exhausted and financially suffocated, yet their pride will not allow them to accept help from the very woman they married as a life partner.
What is the point of having a partner if you are determined to carry every burden alone?
And lastly, let me ask you something even more important.
WHAT EXACTLY ARE YOU TEACHING YOUR DAUGHTER?
That her value is only tied to her vagina and her ability to produce children?
That she should bury her dreams and ambitions because marriage has finally happened?
That she must remain in an abusive marriage because she cannot afford to feed herself and her children?
That no matter how intelligent, talented or hardworking she is, her ultimate achievement should be finding a man who will take complete financial responsibility for her existence?
Is that really the future you want for your daughter?
You spend years educating a girl, encouraging her to excel academically, celebrating her intelligence and achievements, only to turn around and teach her that none of those things should matter once she becomes somebody’s wife.
What a terrible contradiction!
My brother, being a provider is admirable. Being a responsible husband is honourable. But deliberately making your wife helpless is not an achievement.
Your wife should be able to survive without you, not because she is planning to leave you, but because life does not guarantee that you will always be there.
The greatest gift you can give your wife is not just a comfortable life while you are alive, but the capacity, confidence and security to continue living comfortably if you are no longer there.
Build wealth with her. Encourage her ambitions. Protect her interests. Give her room to grow.
Don’t spend your entire marriage making yourself indispensable to the point that your death becomes the beginning of your family’s poverty.
A good husband should leave behind a legacy, not a family that cannot survive without his salary.
THINK!!!

Because God reigns, only rejoicing and gladness shall fill my home in Jesus. It's raining congratulations for me. Amen. 🙏🙏🙏
Good morning to the finest people on earth ….(FOE)….
It’s money day, May it not end as mourn day.
Have a lovely day ahead!!!
Except the wife and children are not well taken care of…
If you and your wife are not running joint account, she has no business knowing when you gift your siblings.
Same way I really do not need to know if my wife is gifting her siblings.
Except we are struggling and she chose to send them money over helping me and her kids…

There is a man in my parents street who keeps his family in an uncompleted building, and earns 35k a month.
He gives the entire 35k to his lady friend who is widowed with 4 kids, and makes some money from his side hustle to cater for himself outside the home.
This man will come home and beat his wife for giving him rice with no meat. Mind you, she cooked with the money she earns from selling snacks to school children in the morning.
My mum pays his kids fees sometimes, and I have this anger welling up within me each time I see him
This man is poor, body and soul.
We take this marriage thing too serious.
If there is no infidelity and poverty, every other things can be managed.
I just want to enjoy my wife, raise my kids and live long in good health.

As part of my birthday celebrations.
Tomorrow I’m going help at least 5 people with ₦50,000 for those in dare need of it.
I’ll make the post tomorrow, because I’m kind of busy today.
I’ll enter their DM and send it to them , they could post it when they receive alerts.
Note it’s not a giveaway.
Gracias 🙏.
I have a believe…
You can’t keep all the money you make to yourself..
Give alms.
Support other unrelated people.
And see multiple ways begin to open.

If you live abroad it’s even worse.
Those teacher literally seat these kids down to ask them about everything going on in the house.
More like looking for something to grab your kids from you to the government.
If it’s only your wife that takes the kids to school, they will make it an issue. I’ve seen parents try to fake it just to act cool. Even when it’s not convenient, both parents show up in school to show that the family are in the care of the kids together.
Reminds me of a colleague.. she said her son broke his water bottle while playing in school. Then he began to cry that “my mom will beat me”… you know that fear we I still in children to keep them accountable na….
That’s how his teacher took it up. She went to pick the child after school and police and social services were waiting for her.
They kept asking this boy questions just to ascertain that truly she beat the son but no evidence.
They took her home to see what the house looks like..
As a smart lady, she called her husband who came home immediately to support her because she’s becoming overwhelmed.
The husband spoke to them that she only use that word to scare him to stop him from misbehaving not that she actually does the act.
Last last, they apologised and left them alone.
Trust me, if you have sex and your children know about it, their teacher knows already.
Children are innocently unaware of the danger of talking carelessly.
