  • If my husband brought another woman to my house and declared his intentions to wife her, I wouldn't fault him. I would rather he tells me the truth than cheat on me. Well, Felly Oyuga believes that African Men are either polygamous or promiscuous in nature and this is something we can't change
    On this episode of LNS, she takes Lynn through her controversial thoughts, why single motherhood houses are failing and why should have an affair.

    There's one thing to think you are on the right path, it's another to think that yours is the only path~Paulo Coelho
    One thing I've learnt in life is that you live it how you love it, follow your intuition and passion as long as it doesn't infringe on others. You can learn from others but take their advice with a pinch of salt. After all in the face of death nothing matters except how you lived for yourself.

Most people pass from one relationship to another before settling in one and even the one you settle on is not the best but you choose to stay.

      The next generation will be polygamous. Even your son and grandson. The bible says, there is nothing new under the sun, what was there will come back. Look at what is happening in our universities. Boys are having kids at 19, 20, 21, 22, 23,24 and they are not yet married. One wife affair ended will end with those born in 1980s. The rest will be polygamous like no man's business.

You fail to hold them accountable, coddle them. Not my cup of tea, but to to each his own. In this day and age you can find men from other countries/ cultures who believe in monogamy and will put you first, sio lazima you settle.

    In this journey of life, have come to realise there's no married man who has never played his wife, naturally men are selfish & they'll react if their "women" play them as if for them when they're doing it they do with fellow men 🤷🏽‍♀️.
    Another thing if we parade married women who play their men, those men will scream. There're so many open relationships out here hiding.
    Marriage is more of flesh than spiritual!!!, pray & fast coz you want to but not out of marriage pain.

    Acts 19:20So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed.
    Proverbs 4:20-23 My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.
    Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.
    For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.
    Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.
    Luke 6:45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
    She's talking from a point of hurting.....and pain ....... polygamy is not good and not what God advocates.....it only happened in the bible in circumstances that where out of the will of God....
    Gods first church is in marriage....that's why the first miracle was in the wedding at Canaan of Galilee..... marriage is a covenant no third party.....

    God at the very beginning set His standards for marriage, there is no where the word of God said that men are naturally polygamous, He did not set up standards that are not achievable to men,our God is so loving... and why is that this it's only men who've got the the leeway to go out and have more partners?(this I view as high level of selfishness.)
    I struggle to understand why the woman should be the one to persevere the pain of a man bringing another woman coz apparently the man is 'permitted' to be polygamous( as in do you see the level of selfishness in all this?)
    The truth is we are trying to excuse men who have refused to exercise self-control and just want to fulfill their lustful needs.
    Women are not lesser beings God loves us all equally, therefore as a woman set your standards right and make your expectations clear in your relationship.
    Marriage does not define you at the end of the day,God called you to fullfill your destiny and if your spouse is not supporting you in that, but breaking you and hurting you, you will not get to where God needs you to be.
    The truth also is that there are many African monogamous marriages that are thriving by the grace of God, but we do not want to accept it because of our own experiences that have formed very strong opinions of how view life.

    Something that really bothers me nowadays is how people use stories of fallen pastors to define Christianity. If a pastor has their sins, that does not change the person who is Christ. It does not define who God is and does not change His character or moral authority. God is God regardless s let us stop this temptation of reducing God to people who fall whether pastors, apostles etc. Christ is so much more. Christianity is deep and the foundation on which it is founded on Christ is rooted in LOVE and the standard still remains to be the scripture...even if everyone is doing the wrong thing,it does not make it right.

    I feel like an African culture history book would be a good gift because as far as African history is concerned,she's blank.
    People tend to think that their story is everyone's story for some reasons.

    Ladies if polygamy is a must for you, be the second wife😄 let the first wife build the man then come in when he's successful ,become the trophy wife and eat their money.

    What nonsense is this woman talking about has she never heard or seen stories of children who suffer so much because their father married another wife/wives. Anyway everyone should do what works for them if polygamy works for her then she should not impose her values on others.

      And their wives think that their husbands are very faithfull kumbe they sleep around with different women out there. When some people say men are polygamous in nature they know what they talk about.

    My grandmother was a second wife, to me it looked nothing out of norm. My grandmother took care of her co wife when she got sick. We have a good relationship with my half cousins from my shosho mukuru.

    "An African man is either polygamous or promiscuous " I STRONGLY DISAGREE
    Guys, the word of God is living and active, God is real, and there are men saved and living for God. I can't accept that lie from the devil. THERE IS ALWAYS A REMNANT FOR GOD... Even if 99% of men are polygamous or whatever there is a 10% for God.... you're free to attack me 😂😂 but I'll stand for the truth.Period.

    It's so sickening when people say, African men blah blah blah...when God was creating Man there's no place he mentioned different characteristics of men depending on their race...So people (African women) should stop tolerating/making excuses for Africa men's disrespect and irresponsible behaviours..🤮🤦🤦

    Lets not put the distinction between african and white people and take a look at the bible which should be our living manual. Even where Sarah requested Abraham to get another wife Haggar, things really failed. Lets follow the teachings of the bible please. God above all and that's why he didn't create Adam with 2 women. All scripture was written by the inspiration of the spirit of God.

    But your husband is well capable to pack his bag,organise his shoes and himself as a whole, why are you as a wife carrying him like a newborn? He has hands and a brain. Or you can employ someone for that.
    The duty of a wife is much more complex than that but again am in for serving and ministering to one another without entitlement.
