In a recent chat with the Nation, Dele Momodu” the CEO of
Ovation International” reviewed secrets of his marriage. He said;
I have been very fortunate to have been married to someone
who has been a mother to five boys. All our children are boys; we have four of
them and I am the fifth child of my wife! She has learnt to carry me as her
fifth baby. No matter how old a man is, we always act like babies. So, I am
lucky she has been able to understand me and know that you cannot throw your
baby away. That is actually the spirit of marriage; husband and wife
must live as if the husband is the baby, though you are supposed to be the head
of the house, you are still her baby. Women know what we do not know as
husbands. They understand what we do not understand and because most of the
time, they are at home, they see more of everything and know the children
better than the husband does.
The women carried the children in the womb so they know
more. And then we have learnt to tolerate each other. We have also leant to be
wary of what other people say to us about us, the busy-bodies who come around
to tell the wife or the husband what the other is doing. I, for instance, I ask
for their motive, what do they stand to gain by telling me things? So, we have
gone through our own turbulence, but God has always been there for us. As for
celebrity marriages, I will advise celebrities to be more tolerant of each
other as couples. More importantly, celebrity couples should learn to respect
one another.
