It’s dangerous to disrespect the women in your life – Akwaboah

Entertainment
Singer-songwriter Akwaboah

Akwaboah has advocated men respect the female figures in their lives.

He said there was great blessing in doing this diligently.

The Highlife star spoke to Nana Romeo on Accra 100.5 FM’s Ayekoo Ayekoo.

“If you have your mother’s, your wife’s, and your mother-in-law’s love and prayers, you’ll be unstoppable,” he said.

He categorically stated cheating and polygamy in the name of imitating some patriarchs in the bible was a dangerous path. He buttressed his point by underlining the heartaches and domestic turmoil of Jacob’s life after marrying two women. He noted King Solomon, in spite of God’s favour and divine wisdom given him, ended up bowing to multiple idols because of his lust for women. He alluded to King David’s kingdom being split in two because adultery led him to murder when he encountered Bathsheeba.

However, according to Gladstorm Akwaboah Jr, the more disturbing thing compared to cheating was doing it without remorse and constantly disrespecting one’s partner.

The My Darling hitmaker rebuked men who were into the said habit, especially because of their financial strength.

“If you grieve your woman and cause her to cry all the time – you may be arrogant today thinking you have money but watch out for when you unfortunately get bedridden with sickness – you’ll learned the hard way not to maltreat your wife or children,” the beloved composer said.

The newlywed disputed the notion that men were naturally unfaithful, citing the first couple mentioned in the bible.

“God made Adam and Eve. He did not create Adam with Eve and another woman. When he made a suitable helper for man, it was only one person not two,” Akwaboah said, arguing polygamy was unnatural and immoral.  

“This is why I made the song Obiaa saying, ‘I came into this life to love only you’. Some people did not understand this. Some people challenged the idea of being lovingly devoted to only one person but naturally, if you observe, God made one for one,” he doubled down.
