She alleged that when she attempts to prepare meals for the household, her husband complains about what he describes as her misuse of ingredients or her fondness for food.
The situation, she stated, has caused her significant emotional distress and, if not properly addressed, she felt this could lead to the premature breakdown of her new marriage.
Appearing on Oyerepa Afutuo, hosted by Auntie Naa, she explained that her husband was Nigerian and that cultural differences were taking a significant toll on their relationship.
According to the woman, talking live on Oyerepa FM, she met her husband through her elder brother, and their marriage was arranged within a period of two weeks.
As a result, they did not have the opportunity to enter into a courtship or get to know each other properly before tying the knot.

Woman laments husband's criticism amid marriage troubles
She said that whenever she confided in her uncle and sought his intervention, he urged her to exercise patience and restraint, warning that the marriage could collapse and she might become a laughing stock within the community.
"I am newly married to a man I met through my brother, and I live with him in a rented accommodation. Whenever my husband sees me cooking, he complains that I am too fond of food.
"The other day, he bought groceries for the household. When they ran out, he complained bitterly that I had finished everything within just two weeks, and said he would not restock the shelves.
"He complains about almost everything I do in the household. I don't understand how long he expects household groceries to last in the house. I am getting very frustrated about his behaviour."
She explained that the situation had caused her a lot of emotional distress and left her very uncertain about the future of her marriage.
