Japa: Women should endure economic hardship under Buhari regime - Pentecost Church

Anglican clergy, Ekenedilichukwu Nwafor, has called on women not to abandon their homes to go abroad for greener pastures.

Nwafor, the vicar in charge of the Church of The Pentecost, Awka, Anglican Communion, made the call during a sermon on Sunday in Awka.

“The economic situation is harsh now, but it is not enough reason for marriages to be abandoned for materialism,” said the cleric.

The Anglican vicar claimed that most women in professional fields like medicine and nursing abandoned their marriages without agreements with their husbands to travel abroad to make more money.

Nwafor said going overseas for material gains could break up marriages, result in adultery and make children vulnerable to social ills, including immorality.

He said God raised the marriage institution to build a Godly society where parents, in agreement, build a healthy home to produce a sane society.

“Women are the builders of homes, so they should not create a vacuum in homes because of little shakes in their finances, family, and offices,” stated Mr Nwafor, admonishing parents to be guided by God’s Word and to walk the talk as commanded by God.

He also urged youths to respect and obey their parents.
