Vivian Irondi, an employee of the World Bank from Nigeria, has a vital message for men who abandon their wives due to a lack of male heirs.
She encourages them to invest in their daughters, highlighting that women are crucial contributors to wealth generation.
Drawing on her personal history, the mother of two pointed out that her great-grandmother amassed such considerable wealth in her lifetime that her legacy is still felt today.
“You’ve discarded your wife because she hasn’t given you a son. Have you not realized that women accomplish remarkable feats and create lasting legacies? I hail from a heritage of formidable women. My great-grandmother embodied strength and achieved wealth and property beyond what many men could during her era. She bore children and also had multiple wives who had children.
Though she had no son of her own, her impact is still evident today. We establish our own benchmarks; we don’t merely imitate. Allow your wife to find tranquility and nurture your daughters; they will undoubtedly bring you pride,” she expressed.
