"I woke up this morning and I was disturbed by a trend that I have found useless and dangerous. When a man depends on a woman to feed him, the usual thing, which is the most disturbing part, is that women want to defend their husbands so that whatever is happening inside doesn't get to the outside. Sometimes it is detrimental to the progress of the man."
KOK shares a man's primary responsibility
He noted that a man's primary responsibility is to provide for his family. He criticised the societal expectations placed on women to support their husbands, who are not fulfilling their roles.
"Every man has a responsibility to his family; a man who cannot take care of his family is worse. What I am saying is that a man who cannot feed his family has no need to use his private parts on a woman. It is your responsibility, yet women try to cover their husbands."
The industry elder advised women on the importance of being discerning when choosing a partner. He highlighted that while love is significant, a man's ability to provide for the family is equally crucial.
"This is advice to women: know who you marry. I know all you place above is love, 'I love him, I love him,' but provision is key. Even when he loses his job, and is always in the house and doesn't go to struggle and hustle like other men. I understand the need to defend them, but don't make them irresponsible," he said.
