In order to safeguard their marriages, married men should set clear boundaries in their interactions with female secretaries and personal assistants, according to the wife of Dr. Pastor Paul Enenche, the founder of Dunamis International Gospel Center.
In a widely shared video, she addressed the topic of relationships at work and cautioned men against letting their professional relationships with female coworkers conflict with their obligations to their wives.
She claims that while women can be effective secretaries, married men need to use caution and steer clear of circumstances that could endanger their marriages or foster needless intimacy.
Enenche’s wife advised men to be mindful of their communication styles and make sure that no other woman gets more attention from them than their wives in the video that was posted on X (formerly Twitter).
“By the time there’s somebody’s text message that is entering your phone more than your wife’s text message, query, query, query. Make efforts to protect yourself,” she said.
She also urged men to think carefully about upholding boundaries in their work relationships.
“Please don’t let anybody take the place of your wife,” she added.
Additionally, the pastor’s wife warned against situations where female secretaries spend needless time attending to the personal needs of their male employers.
She proposed that what might seem like a straightforward workplace duty could result in excessive interpersonal interaction, using the making of tea as an example.
According to her, men who have female secretaries should make sure that proper boundaries are upheld.
“If your secretary is a woman, just ensure you have boundaries and don’t let them cook your tea,” she said.
Speaking after receiving the microphone from his wife, Pastor Paul Enenche acknowledged the general belief that women are better suited for secretarial work because of their attention to detail.
However, he revealed that in his thirty years of experience, he had never hired a female personal assistant or secretary.
“I have never had one for 30 years either as a secretary or as a PA. That’s personal decision, right?” he said.
