Nigerian Mum Writes To Fellow Women As She Reminisces Life After Death Of Her Husband
Dorine Darlington Obi, a Nigerian woman, has spoken up on how life has been after the death of her husband.
The widowed mom shared her experience after celebrating her late husband’s post-humous birthday on March 31, 2025.
According to Dorine, her husband passed away when their marriage was barely three years.
She said when her husband died, she had no business, money, car, or landed property to start her life with but she depended on God who later came through for her and her kids.
Using her experience, she advised women in a similar situation to always pray and use their brains because men would want to take advantage of them.
She wrote:
“Sometimes I am amazed by my own strength. Marriage of 2 and half years. As the sweetness just dey marinate, husband kpai. Ije uwa.
What if I no dey born every year, Late Jasmine would have been my only child. I looked at myself, no business, no money, no landed property, no car. Nothing to begin your journey with but I have God who is enough.
If someone told me that I would be able to afford a decent meal for my kids I wouldn’t have believed. Keep your faith alive and trust God.
It’s not an easy journey but always pray and use your brain Maka men will want to chop you like banku if you keep being vulnerable and lazy.
Don’t tell me sorry ooo, I am just reminiscing Biko. Baby di oyi.”
