"I am a woman, and I love to fight for women’s rights and speak against it when women are at a disadvantage, but you see this, giving a child or children who don’t belong to a man to him under clear love lies, love pretence, love manipulation and some supposed marriage, no wayyyy at all. Save the kids the trauma and save us from losing men in this manner."

"What drives men to take risks? I have now come to accept that polygamy may be a viable solution to the issues men face in marital relationships... if one option doesn't work out, at least the other would provide an alternative."

"I have said times without number that relationships and marriages in Africa nowadays have unfortunately turned into a fraudulent scamming business. Most ladies in Africa were raised in poverty, so everyone has positioned themselves for transactional marriage or relationships, but never mutual tenderness, love and care. The last time I checked the statistics for divorce rates in Africa, it has gone through the roof. With the trend now, I will advise every man in Africa to be very cautious when approaching any lady for marriage or a relationship because it isn't worth it."
