Duncan-Williams says marriage isn’t about love
Archbishop Duncan-Williams has stated that he no longer sponsors people’s weddings. He explained that men who are ready to marry should be independent and capable of taking care of themselves and their wives.
The preacher stressed that marriage is about responsibility. He noted that while the Bible says a man and woman shall leave their parents, it does not mention children who still depend on parental assistance and guidance.
Archbishop Williams also highlighted the importance of financial planning, stating that having at least GH¢100,000 saved is essential, yet many couples fail to plan for life after the wedding. He encouraged parents to help their grown-up children open savings accounts to prepare for the future.
