Mary Njoku Speaks Frankly On People’s Expectations Of Women To Work As If They Don’t Have Kids And Raise Children As If They Don’t Work
Nollywood actress and movie producer, Mary Remmy -Njoku has said that it’s not easy being a mother and also working at the same time.
According to the 36-year-old ROK TV boss and mother of three, women have to either choose one or do a little of both, adding that men should also support their wives to create a balance.
Giving an example of a friend’s husband who complained to her that his wife has refused to work because she’s raising their four boys, Mary who is married to the co-founder and CEO of iROKOtv, Jason Nkoku, asked how he expects her to do both fully especially as the children are under the age of 10.
She wrote below:
“Haba!! Body no be firewood ?. We have to either choose one or do a little of BOTH. And Oga has to do a little of BOTH too. To create a balance. Women are humans, not robots!!
A friend’s husband just complained to me that his wife does nothing to support him. ‘She just sits at home with the boys and eats’Imagine ???. 4 sons under 10!!!
Anyway I don’t think her husband will ever speak to me again ??.Time for a workout!! ??”
