Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde:The woman should give the man the respect as the head of the home and also prove herself as a worthy co-pilot-

One of the problems with the people in this world is, women thinking they can be the man, they don't need a man, they are better than men, what men can do a woman can do better. But honestly, who are we kidding? In a lot of cases, yes...but in most cases NO. You can not take the place of a man, it's GOD's design and it will happen the way he has orchestrated it. So therefore I totally agree with Omotola on this one, what are your thoughts?

Omotola, in a recent Interview with Punch talked about how a woman can have a successful marriage, the sultry actress said:


I don’t believe in gender equality. I do not believe that God made man and woman to be equal in any way. I believe that in every organised institution, there is always a head and an assistant. It doesn’t mean that one should take the other for granted, or disrespect the other. I believe the husband is the head of the home and the wife is an assistant. My husband is a pilot, I have flown with him several times and I understood that here is a captain and a co-pilot. They are both responsible for the passengers’ lives. But when there is a final decision to make, it is up to the captain to make it. He is more experienced and the one with the responsibility.
 But any mature captain will not ignore his co-pilot because the co-pilot is not a cabin attendant. He is there for a reason. It just depends on how you understand and play your roles. I believe women should understand this. When a woman starts a struggle for power tussle with him, it tends to cause friction in the home. The woman should give the man the respect as the head of the home and also prove herself as a worthy co-pilot. He needs to see you as a reliable co-pilot. Sometimes, he may not be the one running the house day-to-day, you are the one to take decisions but you have to do it in such a manner that he is comfortable enough to see you as someone he can rely on.

When you have a proud and egocentric husband, hand him over to God. If you feel like your life is being threatened, or that of your children, get yourself out of that situation. You owe your children that. Try separation for a while, but before that, you must have tried other things. I do not believe that people should throw in the towel in their marriage at every flimsy excuse. You must have been a diligent wife and tried prayers and intervention. If all those fail, then you can remove yourself from that situation. Also, couples should be friends and communicate. What we call love sometimes fizzles out. True love comes from friendship. When you don’t feel those initial sparks, friendship is what keeps you together, until when the spark comes again.

Nicki Minaj In Court Battle With Wig Maker Terrence Davidson, Sued For $30million.

Nicki Minaj has a case to answer in court has she is being sued for $30 million by her ex-wig maker/hair stylist, Terrence Davidson.
On February 21, Davidson filed a suit against Minaj in Atlanta claiming that the singer/rapper breached their deal and went ahead to sell his products on her website.
Speaking to CNN, Davidson and his attorney, Christopher Chestnut, said the rapper now markets and sells Davidson’s wig on her website with the accrued money going into her purse, ‘I see these wigs online, People are basically duplicating what I created for Nicki Minaj,’ said Davidson.
Chestnut also added, ‘Nicki Minaj is reaping great success and financial bounty reward for Terrence’s creative expertise, and he is entitled to participate in that. Someone’s got to stand up for the artist. We applaud the fact that she’s making millions, but she’s also got to pay bounty to those whose creative designs she’s making millions off of.’


Davidson claims he’s been making wigs for Minaj since 2010 and also gave her a unique sense of style ranging from blonde to pink wigs. He said they had earlier planned on launching a wig line in the nearest future but the rapper kept mute on that until he saw her posts on her website.
