Men who can’t provide for their families have no ‘need for intimacy with women’ – Kanayo

Veteran Nollywood actor Kanayo O Kanayo has called out men who are irresponsible in providing for their families.

In an Instagram post on Sunday, the 62-year-old actor emphasised that men who fail to provide financially for their families “have no right to intimacy.”

Kanayo stressed that financial responsibility is a vital aspect of marriage, highlighting that men are expected to care for their households through hard work, in line with sacred teachings.

He made the argument that the responsibility of men in marriage is not only a societal expectation but also a moral one with its roots from the bible.

The actor cautioned women against encouraging partners to be financially irresponsible, saying that doing so could lead to males becoming more “lazy and irresponsible.”

Kanayo advised young ladies to exercise caution while selecting life partners, stressing the importance of picking men who are aware of their responsibilities.

He said, “I woke up to a trend that I found disturbing. It is useless and dangerous — a man depends on a man to feed him. The most disturbing part is that women want to defend their husbands so that whatever is happening in their homes does not go out,” he said.

“But sometimes it is detrimental to his progress. Every man has a responsibility to his family. As we read in the holy books a man who does not provide for his family is worse than.

“…But I am saying on this note that a man who cannot feed his family has no need and no use to use his private part on a woman. It is a responsibility. This is an advice to young women. Know who you marry.

“I have been disturbed by this. Do not make the defence for man to make him irresponsible. He does not take his bills again. Especially if your children are still within the growing age. When you have to pay school fees and so on. It brings a whole lot to the woman.

“It brings pressure on the woman. I have a personal experience of somebody who even if the car of the wife goes bad pretends he does not know. It got to a level when the conversion became so open. There is a need for every man to be hardworking.”
