‘Rearing’ your Children should be more important to you than pursuing any Career – Nigerian Man tells Women (Video)

A Nigerian man simply identified as Darlington called into a radio show to say that women are by nature responsible for nurturing their children and must choose their children over any career.

According to Darlington, women have asked men to stop beating them and they have stopped but to ask the men to also share in doing domestic chores such as raising children is asking for too much. In his words

”You women are asking for too much. You say we should not beat you people when you misbehave in the house we said okay. You said we should repsect you, we said okay. You said we should provide, we said ok. Now you are asking us to play your own role in the house. What happen? There is a natural role for women. You are supposed to groom your baby, bring up the children.That is why the society is breaking down because the youths are not properly groom. A woman will give birth today and the next day she says she is pursuing career. Why should women have to work? The man is supposed to provide for the home until the woman has finished rearing her babies. She can now pursue career. Babies are more important to a woman than any career. If you gain the whole career and the home front is in tatters, what have you gained? Since women abandoned their role, can’t you see the reflection in the society? Women have abandoned their roles because they have become assertive.

Many Twitter users are however amazed at his submission.
