According to Victoria Nkechi Mgbor, a Nigerian woman who has been married for 26 years, women are trapped in violent relationships because they follow the Holy Spirit’s marriage-related instructions.
“Women listening to the holy spirit about their marriage keeps them stuck in very abusive marriages unfortunately,” she wrote in a Facebook post on Monday.
“I don’t have the strength to wait for the holy spirit before I fix a man’s bullshit, sorry for my language. That’s why the most abused women are found in churches and mosques trying to please God and the man. Count me out please. I wasn’t cut out to be mistreated or abused, ask my husband and children. It’s been 26 years.”
