You’re worth more than your marital status, what matters is your sanity, Tonto Dikeh tells married women
Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh is dishing out relationship advises from far away United Arab Emirates in series of posts on Instagram.
In the posts, Tonto Dikeh, spoke about marriage, saying it should be a place of happiness and not a bed of thorns full of sadness.
She advised women to quit when their marriage becomes a place of regret, saying,
You’re worth more than your marital status! What matters is your peace and joy and sanity
She advised that it is better to leave an abusive marriage because it shows your partner doesn’t respect you in any way.
She wrote,
Dear African woman,
Marriage is not supposed to be a bed of thorns, if your partner keeps abusing you, disrespecting you, and causing you pain, you have to prioritize self-care and leave.The society and the government have refused to protect womanhood, our rights have the bottom of the pot; we are constantly shooed, and intimidated into silence but today I tell you to leave.
It’s no longer love when you have to cry every day. It’s no longer love when your matrimonial home is now a boxing ring. It’s no longer love when you are used as a punching bag. Staying married must not require staying in pain, and wallowing in regret.
Leave today! Forget what religion and tradition say. You’re worth more than your marital status! What matters is your peace and joy and sanity!
It’s been international women’s day against violence, and I’m encouraging you to leave that toxic relationship, leave that violent marriage, speak up and live again.
