I bring up issues like this to better our society. It’s only a
mad man that will wake up in the morning, make love to his wife, eat
with her and the next thing he starts beating her for being a good wife.
If we keep waiting for troubles to happen in marriages and we react
by calling the husband Coward and other such names, it would keep
leading to more deaths like we had in Ibadan where Yewande was said to
have stabbed her husband to death, after injuring him the previous
night.
There is also a recent case of a wife who stabbed her husband to death in Lagos on Christmas day.
These things don’t just happen, but men can’t speak up about the
insults and abuse they are suffering in the hands of bad wives because
society will laugh and even call them ‘woman-wrapper’.
This orientation MUST change. We should encourage couples to live in
mutual respect and not to be imposing it on men to take every nonsense,
until he’s injured or stabbed to death in worst cases.
Everyone has their elastic limits. You can’t keep insulting a man and
keep saying he should walk away. That is a wrong approach. If you are
not ok just leave the marriage, rather than use your bad mouth to turn
your husband into a wife beater.
The truth is bitter, but it must be said.
