Pastor Kingsley Okonkwo has been sharing his observations and advice on relationships and marriage.
Recently, he noted that some wives focus more on preventing others from meeting their husbands’ needs rather than fulfilling those needs themselves.
Previously, he criticized celebrities who hide their partners’ faces on social media, calling it “madness” since no one forced them to share their relationships online.
He also advised women to choose partners from those who are already interested in them, rather than chasing after someone they desire, and encouraged them to respond to messages in their DMs. Pastor Okonkwo’s comments aim to spark reflection and change in people’s approaches to relationships.
