Few days ago, a Nigerian doctor via his twitter handle, shared the story of how a husband connived with his doctor to remove his wife's womb because he doesn't want her to have more children. This happened in Festac town, Lagos.

According to the husband, himself and his wife agreed to have just three children but now they have five. After the birth of the 5th child, he connived with the doctor to remove her womb without her consent. He said he cannot see himself using condom to have sex with his wife. The wife has also stated previously that she doesn't like taking birth control pills because they make her bloated. Read story here.

This morning, the hosts of TVC's show, The View, discussed the issue and one of the presenters, Tope Mark-Odigie, was of the opinion that as long as a woman has gotten married to a man traditionally, he has the right to do whatever he wants to do with her.

According to her, it is the culture that we practice. She stated that traditional weddings have been created to give the impression that a woman is being bought by a man.

I disapproved of my wife's use of extensions on her hair and she didn't like it initially.

Today ,she is thanking me for it because her natural hair makes other women go green with envy.

God created women beautifully and differently with diversity in their shapes, shades and sizes. Unfortunately, our women feel they aren't beautiful until they wear plastic hair, dead women's hair and all manner of disgusting fibres.

They may not like certain decisions men take concerning them but most times, its for their own benefits.

This is Africa and we are patriarchal.

Marriage is never equal to slavery

Wedding is never equal to selling of the bride to the groom

Although nowadays women are trying to turn wedding into a money making venture, traditionally and culturally marriage is never slavery.

Marriage has been defined as the legal union of a man and women to become husband and wife.

The wife has some rights over her husband likewise the husband over his wife.

Does he have a daughter yet, he'll know soon!


I strongly disagree with this.

Tope is talking about where she is from! Other tribes is not like that. We don't sell our daughters. Many men had had vasectomy without the knowledge of their wives. Yes...it is better you dont let her know otherwise it backfires on you. The 'woman' in your wife will tne next quarrlel mock and laugh at you to the whole world as a half man. So ...Doctors recommend you do your thing. The Husband na mumu if they planned 3 and now they are in 5. This story not true!

I unfollowed her on instagram immediately she made that statement. I'd have over looked it, if it came from morayo or jumoke not tope.

She's mad to have uttered such nonsense! Jeez, can't believe as exposed and well read tope is, she could make such blunder.. Kai! She just lost herself a fan.

It's one thing to say a word but it'll be nice if you can explain better so people don't give it a different meaning.
No husband owns the body of his wife and does not have the right to do whatever he feels like to/with the body.
There's no tradition or even religion whatsover that says that. That only happens when we have people whose brain did not form well prior to birth due to lack of glucose and substantial oxygen to the brain.

Don't want to trade words as per that your civilised insult.

African identity that allows a man do what he pleases with his wife?

I'm sure you understand what this connotes. Like a man can beat up his wife, maim her, sexually abuse her, infringe on her God given rights... Just because he paid a "bride price"


C'mon man! This is 2018 not 1908.

No Nigerian tradition outrightly allows u to remove ur wife's womb without her consent. The context of bought in our tradition means that u should value ur property... and not misuse it.

What happens to human rights? Was she sold out to him as property? What kinda dick-heads are being bred in this country? Oh yeah, I think the Bible also stated that the wife owns her husband's body. She can as well go head and cut off his dick, shikena undecided

Well, misuse is relative. The owner of a property dictates what is misuse and what is not misuse. angry
