Don’t pray for your wife to feed you, Pete Edochie says

Veteran Nollywood actor Pete Edochie has warned married men against taking lightly the responsibility of providing for their families.

Speaking on Isbae U’s interview platform, Curiosity Made Me Ask, Edochie said men should never pray for a situation in which they depend on their wives for food. He argued that such dependence could expose a man to ridicule and emotional distress.

“

I want you to listen properly. This is wisdom from somebody who has been in that institution for almost 60 years. I have been married for the past 57 years.

Edochie presented the advice as the product of long personal experience. He said he had been married for 57 years and described his remarks as wisdom from someone who had spent almost six decades in marriage.

“If things change and your wife has to feed you for two or three days, you would want to take poison,” he said. “The kind of insult that will be heaped on you because your wife is feeding you, don’t ever think about it.”
