Renowned evangelist and the founder and president of Mount Zion Faith Ministries and Mount Zion Television, Mike Bamiloye, recently made a controversial statement regarding the marital status of Nigerian women.
POLITICS NIGERIA reports that according to Bamiloye, a large number of Nigerian ladies are not qualified to get married, even at the age of 28.
The outspoken evangelist shared his views on the current trends in marriages among young couples in the country via his verified Instagram account.
Bamiloye lamented that the focus of many people nowadays is more on the wedding day than on the actual marriage itself.
He wrote, “I am so afraid of the youths of this generation. Many are not preparing enough to enter into marriage. Many are very shallow in their knowledge of marriage. They prepare more for the wedding day than for the marriage life. No deep studies on what marriage entails.
“They are too hasty and not ready to sit down and learn the principles of marital life. Many ladies are not qualified to be wives even at 28. They can’t cook properly. They are used to fast foods at the eateries, and ice cream, Indomie and Spaghetti plus boiled eggs and Titus. They spend six months studying the wedding gowns and the accessories for the bridal trains.”
He further stated that ladies now rush in and out of marriage.
“Now, our young sisters are being taught how to walk out of marriage. Many of them are rushing in and they are being taught how to rush out of it when things are not working out as expected,” Bamiloye said.
