Nigerian female pastor says feminism is rubbish
In an earlier report by Yen.com.gh, Pastor Mildred described feminism in marriage as rubbish.
The Christian cleric said women should practice their feminism in the office but not in marriage.
According to the pastor, feminism in marriage is not God's word, adding that women should be obedient to what God says.
