A man has stirred massive reactions online after suggesting that men who want a “peaceful marriage” should consider marrying women from orphanage homes.
In a now-viral video, he explained that his opinion is based on avoiding what he described as “family-related stress” that sometimes comes with marriage.
“If you want peace, marry a girl from an orphanage home,” he said.
According to him, such unions may reduce pressure from extended family demands, which he believes can sometimes create tension in relationships.
He claimed that in some marriages, issues arise from financial expectations and obligations tied to a partner’s family.
However, his statement has sparked serious backlash, with many people criticizing the mindset and calling it insensitive.
Some argued that marriage should never be based on someone’s background or lack of family, but on love, respect, and compatibility.
Interestingly, the man also warned against exploiting vulnerable women, stressing that everyone is protected by law and should be treated with dignity.
“It must be love, consent, and understanding,” he added.
Despite the clarification, the video continues to generate mixed reactions, with Nigerians debating whether his advice makes sense or crosses the line.
“As a man, if you want to get married, consider marrying a girl from an ørphanage home because there is no way you will marry a lady with a family without her bringing her family issues into the marriage with you as her husband.”👀👀
