This is a NAN report and it’s quite
interesting. Read below..
Some men in Abuja have given
reasons why they prefer to stop
over at drinking joints before
going home.
Few of them who
spoke to the News Agency of
Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja noted that
they did that to avoid unnecessary
squabbles with their wives. They
also said disturbances from their
children contributed to making
them stay late night at drinking
joints.
Ferdinand Lucas, a welder, who
usually visited a joint said that he
stopped over at the garden to
relax with a bottle of beer before
going home to avoid argument
with his wife.
“I recall when we newly got
married, my wife use to be very
humble and caring but now it is
the opposite. My wife complains
on every issue and sometimes I
don’t even know how to handle or
manage her. In one of the
occasions when I got home, she
started complaining over the
children school fees which I
already promised to settle at the
end of the month,’’ he said.
Lucas said he wish he was still
single to avoid the usual ranting of
the wife, even when he came home
late. Mr. Samuel Olaedo a business
man at Wuse Market said he
preferred to stop over at beer
parlour to drink and watch football
to ease off tension before going
home.
“I recall an incident that happened
some time ago, my wife asked me
to buy a separate television for
her to avoid her disturbance
during football match. I told her I
have no money for that now, since
she comes back home before me
she will start watching her soap
operas; she will hide the remote
control from me. When I return
home and try to change the
station from the decoder we will
start arguing which will result to
insults, ’’ he said.
Olaedo pointed out that he
preferred going straight to his bed
to sleep even when he returned
home late just to avoid the wife’s
disturbance.
A male boutique operator, who
spoke on the condition anonymity,
said the desire to take care of his
girlfriend keeps him out in a
garden every day. According to
him, the wife is incapable of
making the home interesting for
him.
“My girlfriend is a very interesting
person and she makes me very
happy; that is why I spend more
time with her than with my wife.
My wife doesn’t make the home
interesting, she is always busy
chatting with her friends on phone
and leaving me to myself but my
girlfriend gives me attention and
notices everything that bothers
me,’’ he said.
He further said that he could be
married to the girlfriend if the wife
does not change.
