Feminism responsible for high rate of domestic violence, broken marriages… Pete Edochie
Legendary Nollywood actor, Pete Edochie, has blamed rising cases of domestic violence against women and broken marriages on feminism.
Speaking in an interview with BBC Igbo, Edochie said women are at fault in most cases of domestic violence.
According to him, modern women don’t know how to do basic things and keep their husbands happy and as a result, some men who are unable to control their emotions end up beating their wives.
Edochie however said he doesn’t ascribe beating women because his mother was never beaten and he has never beaten his wife.
The actor further stated some of the modern trends, which the African men indulge in, were non-existent during his time like kneeling to propose to a woman.
He insisted the African culture does not allow for worshipping of the women just like in the western world.
Stressing that he is not a woman-hater, Edochie said he believes in African culture and traditions.
