His highest level of education was JSCE.
This man stopped schooling in JSS 3 while my cousin was a Master's degree holder.
The man had zero sperm count but my cousin bore the shame of childlessness because of course,she was considered to be too old. She was advised to try IVF but the husband opposed it and said it was not biblical even though she was going to sponsor it 100% .
He dragged her backwards in everything and eventually made her resign from her university lecturer job to take up the position of a principal in a private school in their neighborhood ,just to message his ego.
The marriage lasted for 6 years .The man passed on due to complications of diabetes which he refused to manage as he believed it was spiritual attack.

Ofunaofu: Defence Minister Christopher Musa has urged Nigerian youths to take the lead in tackling insecurity, saying security agencies alone cannot solve the country’s challenges. Christopher Musa says Nigerian youths must play a leading role in tackling insecurity.
He stressed that security is a collective responsibility, not the duty of security agencies alone.
The minister urged youths to support security efforts through vigilance, innovation and community engagement.
Musa said empowering young people is key to addressing the root causes of insecurity.
The Minister of Defence, retired General Christopher Musa, has challenged Nigerian youths to take a leading role in the fight against insecurity, saying lasting peace and stability cannot be achieved by security agencies alone.
Musa made the call while addressing young Nigerians at a public event, where he stressed that the country’s youth population remains its greatest asset and must be actively involved in efforts to tackle security challenges affecting communities across the nation.
According to the minister, insecurity has continued to pose a major threat to national development, with issues such as banditry, kidnapping, terrorism and other criminal activities affecting lives and livelihoods in different parts of the country.

His comments come as Nigeria continues to battle various security challenges in several regions, prompting renewed discussions on the need for a whole-of-society approach to tackling insecurity.
