#BringBackOurGirls convener and #EndSARS front-liner, Aisha Yesufu is currently under fire after she advised couples to keep their mothers out of their marriage.

Recall the Nigerian sociopolitical activist had advised married couples to keep their mothers out of their marriage if they want it to work.

According to her, the moment you start sharing what is happening in your marriage with your mother, she will interfere, and that’s the end.

In her words, “When you get married, the first person you have to ensure you keep out of your marriage is YOUR MOTHER! Those love and concerns and wanting to find all is okay in the guise of love? It is not healthy! You start sharing what is happening you are done for! They begin to interfere!

As a new couple, learn what works for you. It is unique. Develop it yourself the way you want to. Keep everyone out of it! Do your thing and it is never easy marrying two different lives together. So take your time.
Keep everyone out and do you!”

However, her advice did not seem to go down well with majority of her followers who wasted no time in calling her to other.

While others backed their drags with reasons such as their mom being the Queen in their life and as such, would never place their wife above their mother, others warned her to focus on #EndSARS protest and leave marital issues.

No vex sisi but I will never place my marriage first before my mum/parents, in fact I will never marry any girl that isn’t welcomed by my mom. C’mon I can’t be the source of sadness for my mom who brought me into this world just because I found love. No, not me!

Concentrate on activism please. You ain’t winning this. My wife is the second queen after mommy. She can shift out if she misbehaves.
@Vikktor09
Why not focus on this activism which have had traction. Every body must not turn into marriage advocate. No woman in this world would ever help me as much as my mother had and I would never keep her away at any phase of my life. Please let’s focus on endsars. Leave this one.

As a married man, your Mother can never be your “Queen”.. She’s your Father’s Queen already.. Stop belittling your own Queen… So because

@AishaYesufu is an Activist, she should now forget her other areas of strength (Counselling) which 80% of her followers may be in need of?

That’s why the Federal Government has sent a bill to the NASS to implement the removal of omuguwo. So that what God has joined together, make mama no go put asunder
@IsmailAwofe
Removing omugwo is catastrophic. Most of these young 21st century girls don’t know how to take care of babies’ fragility…esp with all these supposed finesse and ‘poshness’. What should be advised is that the mothers don’t stay for too long.
@Bendico247
But can a mother’s love ever be replace? There are somethings you cnt just help but to discuss it with your mum, moreover is better to confide in your mother than a stranger who never wish you well in the first place.
@BekaiyeBlessing
Depending on the situation of things, & the type of mother too! No advice is
% correct in my own opinion. A God fearing mother or mother inlaw will not be a bad idea, rather than dying in silence alone. Guidance is still needed at one point or the other if all done in love.
