“Why I occasionally stop my wife from visiting her parents” — Nigerian man

A Nigerian man has taken to Twitter to reveal why he occasionally stops his wife from paying a visit to her parents.

The man, identified as Oistien van Mowo, explained that his wife had formed the habit of visiting her mother all the time because they live in the same city.

According to him, whenever he travels out of town for the weekend, his wife usually grabs the opportunity to visit her parents.

Mowo, who describes himself as a traditional man, said the frequent visits didn’t sit well with him so he decided to halt the visits.

He said he has stopped her on a few occasions, and it’s his own way of creating balance in his home.

“I have stopped my wife once or twice from visit her parent. Her mum lives in same city as we do, the first time of stopping her from going was because she was making it too frequent and any time I am out of town over the weekend she’s ready to run off. Trying to cut a daughter off from her parent is different to trying to balance things in your home,” he tweeted.
