"When a Lady Should Propose to a Man": Rev Fr Oluoma Advises Ladies Who Are 35 on How to Do it

• Rev Fr John Chinenye Oluoma has advised single women to change the narrative of men always doing the asking out
• The priest said a woman who is 35 and still waiting for a man to approach her for a relationship is doing herself no good
• Fr Oluoma painted a picture of how a single lady can ask a man out, maintaining that no law stated that only men must propose

Priest of the Catholic Archdiocese of Abuja, Rev Fr John Chinenye Oluoma, has stated that there was nothing wrong in a single 35-year-old woman wooing a man for a relationship.

Fr Oluoma made the statement while delivering a teaching on The Leper.

Women should break the law

Father Oluoma, who was very active during the 2023 General Elections, said any woman at 35 still waiting to be asked out by a man is not ready yet.

"My dear sister, you are waiting for a man who will come and propose to you at the airport.

"35 years? You are not ready o. You are waiting for a man who will come and propose to you. You don dey enter menopause," he said in a video.

He noted that some men are shy at wooing and this is where the lady comes in to make it easier. Father Oluoma urged single ladies to break the 'useless law.' In his words:

"If you are a young girl here, marriage is your calling, you know you can be a good wife, a good mother, you desire it, you are 35, you happen to see any guy who is interested in you but doesn't have the courage... My dear sister, break that useless law, approach that guy."

He added that no written law says a man must propose to a woman and not vice versa.

"Which law says only men must propose? Is it God's law or human law?

"There is no law that says a man must propose."

The priest's advice sparked a debate on social media.

Lady advises against marrying before 30

Meanwhile, YEN.com.gh previously reported that a relationship coach had advised women not to marry before 30.

In a post she made on TikTok, the lady, @raezjewels noted that women who get married before 30 may regret the decision.

Raez Jewels said the early 20s are supposed to be the formative years of young women and not for marriage. According to Jewels, women should use those years to decide what they want in life before attempting to settle down.
