In a thought-provoking message, Jemimah Ifeng, a Nigerian lawyer and pastor's wife, sheds light on the husband's role in providing for the family in marriage. While recognizing the importance of wives who choose to contribute financially willingly, Ifeng emphasizes that submission in marriage has no connection to a wife's financial contributions. Instead, she underscores the husband's fundamental responsibility to ensure the family's well-being through provision and support.
This message resonated with many, sparking discussions on gender roles and responsibilities within the sacred institution of marriage. It's a topic that prompts us to reflect on the dynamics of modern relationships and the significance of mutual understanding and respect between partners.

“Husbands, Submission In Marriage Has Nothing To Do With Your Wife's Money. It's Your Duty To Provide, Whatever Help She Wants To Give Should Be Voluntary.”

@Anonymous said; “I thought marriage is the union of two people to become one in love. Why is it all of a sudden every attempt is being channelled to bring a strife in the relationships of the gullible few? Women cannot be preaching equality on one hand and want to be treated as princess on the other hand. Equality comes with responsibilities. How can any sane human advocate that a man should carry all the responsibilities in this harsh economy and make a working woman's expenses on HER family discretionary? With this kind of attitude, that's why a man's family will treat a wife like a liability if any happens to the man.”
