    3. Anon 11:36, she took a break had children and the man still did not pipe down. In her world she was smart because she stayed on top of things. Women take a break and come back extinct to the workforce and can not ever get placed. Take a break but stay on top of things.

  3. Nawa o. Why so many failed marriages in nollywood. Guess most of the men are not supportive of this their going away on location and all. Things they shld have discussed while courting. Omotola and omoni must have really understanding hubbys then. Especially omoni who even leaves her base for naija alot. You can't win with these men,many say they don't want housewives. Say they are looking for "working class women". They don't want to pay all the bills. Now the woman goes out to hustle you start saying she's cheating.

  6. Oh please some men and their insecurities and archaic mentality. I’m sure Rita’s husband is the sort of controlling, domineering man who would want her to be nothing but a housewife. Abeg marriage shouldn’t signify the end of your goals/career biko. Her family should even make the money N70k sef. Good riddance?

    1. If you verify well, the man is from Mbano, that's how they treat their women.
      They are too domineering in marriage not allowing their wives freedom.
      So many of Mbano men are like that.
      Rita you are a strong woman.

  14. N70???????? 😮! Is that a typo?

  15. Hmmm! Many men marry entertainers and hope to turn them to housewives. Some of the ladies think they can cope, but after a few years they start seeing their peers, or those they were even better, than doing well. And maybe they find it hard to get into other business/ career paths. So they want to go back and by then, oga isnt having it. Because he's not used to her being so busy, cheating allegations start coming in. She gets pissed takes a walk.

  19. LADIES, listen and listen well. If you make the mistake of marrying and not securing your future you will pay dearly. If you leave your career or business to take care of the home biko stay relevant while you are forming house wife. Men are the most unstable elements. Every married woman who has been married for over 10 years will tell you this. Single women, DISCUSS THIS WITH YOUR MEN and if possible get an agreement between him and your people that he will not stand in the way of your progress. Do not be stupid because of love. These kids will HATE you if you leave them at the mercy of a wishy washy man. The saying that no one can care for a child like its mother does not only mean sitting at home, it means providing for the child. A man will easily see good school school fees as a burden when his family is pressuring him for money. A woman will find ways to hustle up some more money and make ends meet.
    This has little to do with this post but I pray you listen.

    I AM A MAN, I AM SOMEONE'S SON AND BROTHER and my sister was foolish enough to fall for this. My mother suffered this but she bounced back.

  21. Nigerian men urgently need training & serious coaching on how to become better husbands & take supporting roles to their wives who are working hard to achieve successful outcomes!
    Even when the man has his own successful job, business or career. They must learn that it is a very good thing & healthy for the relationship to thrive when a woman is capable of becoming economically independent through good paying job or business ventures & career.

    ***Nigerian men do often sabotage their wives by becoming jealous & competitive when they see that a woman is shining or have got that capacity to outshine their man in the public domain.

    Goodluck to Rita Nzelu! I wish her well & hope she finds happiness in fulfilling her desire to do well in her chosen career, other than just to be a dormant wife & mother.
