A Good Wife

Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala is richer than her husband—a neurosurgeon.

They’re still living together peacefully.

We’ve never heard of any scandal or power tussle between them.

Not once has their marriage made it to social media for the wrong reasons.

What about Oby Ezekwesili?

She’s more influential and probably earns more than her husband—yet she’s still married.

No drama. No ego fights. No noise.

But you, your own headache is that your wife might be richer or more successful than you.

That’s your fear—not how to build a stable home, not how to raise your kids, not how to grow together.

Just pride. Ego. Insecurity.

You don’t even care about the well-being of your children.

It’s all about “me, the man,” “me, the head.”

I don’t want her to be bigger than me. That’s just your worry.

If you can’t partner with your spouse in this thing called life,

then what the hell are you in the marriage?

Let’s be honest—some of you don’t love each other, you just coexist.

From my last post, it’s clear that some men hate to see their wife grow.

They want her to stay small so they can feel big.

They’re fine being the only one succeeding—as long as it keeps their ego intact.

When God created woman, he created her as a help mate to assist the man . We need their assistance, support and so on.
