A man identified as Neme Love has criticised men who allegedly treat their former wives poorly and, by extension, neglect their responsibilities toward their children after the end of their marriages.
Neme took to Facebook to share the experiences of two of his male friends, whom he accused of going to extreme lengths to avoid providing for their families after their marriages ended.
He also stated that if a woman had given him children, he would have no problem with a significant portion of his wealth going toward her and their children, even if they were no longer together.
He wrote:
“I’m not going to lie.. Some of my married male friends or acquaintances are wicked.. that is why I don’t blame some naija women for matching the energy they were dealt.. I have 5 guys in my community circle that are EX-HUSBANDS.. If I call your case no vex – you are wicked..
“1.) One of them filed for divorce, started dating a woman that is wealthier than him.. His EX – Wife is asking for child support for his two kids with her.. Guess what homeboy did.. He quit his job and started taking Govt Assistance.. then making money through other means plus support from his rich new girl that is not a Nigerian.. Tomorrow now if his EX-Wife comes online to say one or two things about naija men we will eat her up.. How wicked can one be to go to the extent of quitting your own job..
“2.) The other one acts as if his ex-wife and kid does not exist but he is living la vida loca..
“I won’t call all the cases today.. but when I think of it.. Some of you men have dealt so unfavorably to Naija women and it’s really not fair.. The women are not all innocent, but Mehn.. sometimes you don’t even have to go all Prince of Demon on someone.. be gracious.. To be honest some of you are very wicked!! There are so many things I can never do to a lady that has given me kids..
“This is my opinion sha.. if a woman has given me 2-3 kids that I need in this world.. If she wants to take half of my wealth even 60%.. she should.. who do you people think I am doing all these things for??? I’ve even done the maths.. If I have a house, 2 cars, Solar etc. I can be more than OK with N2m a month (N500k a week) by myself in Naija.. I’m not a drinker – so I’m not going to any club to declare for you.. my biggest expense will be food.. and I’m not even much of an eater.. if you know me, you know I’m simple like that.. I’m not into all that laow-laow spending.. eji eme gini…
“So all you wicked Ex- husbands in my acquaintance list.. this entire money you’ve made.. who did you make it for?? I want to learn..”
Neme’s comments have sparked a broader conversation about parental responsibility, financial support after divorce and the treatment of former spouses. He maintained that regardless of marital disagreements, men should not abandon their responsibilities toward women with whom they share children.
