Men do not benefit from marriage!!!
1. He is 72 years old.
2. He has retired from active service.
3. He worked all his life to raise his children.
4. He deprived himself of life's pleasures to pay for expensive school fees and living expenses for his children abroad.
5. They are now well-off in Europe, Australia, and America.
6. His wife, aged 62, has relocated to live with their children.
7. He remains alone back in Nigeria.
8. His children barely call him.
9. He has to start life all over again as a bachelor.
10. He struggles with high blood pressure and other ailments associated with old age.
11. How much longer will he survive alone?
12. This is the reality for most working-class monogamous men: their old age is often lonely and, in many cases, sad.
13. No matter how good the man is, women tend to love their children more than their husbands. The older he gets, the less use they seem to have for him.
14. So, what do men truly benefit from marriage?
15. They sacrifice so much but receive little recognition for their hard work, while the woman seems to reap all the benefits.
It’s a man’s world they said but for the women and children in reality.
Dear men, this could be your situation in the next few decades. What are you doing about it? What is your retirement plan? Care for your self as much as you care for your family. Love yourself.

A man in Kano went to a foodseller.
He had not eaten in 3 days.
He bêgged the seller for food on credit.
The foodseller said no because he already gave food to too many people on credit.
The man sat down beside the foodseller’s shop as he had nowhere else to go.
The foodseller told him he’s very sørry and he would like to help but too many people in the neighbourhood have collected food on credit and his business is sínkīng.
The man sat there and said nothing.
As time went on, other people came into the shop to buy foodstuff and went out- they noticed the man at the door sitting there sleeping. But nobody bōthered.
Until one man came later in the day and asked the foodseller: “who is the man sitting at your door?” “Why is he there?”
Then the foodseller said “oh it’s a man who says he has not eaten for 3 days and he wants to collect food on credit but I could not give him because my business is strūggliñg from all the credit I have already given out”.
Then the other man said: “How much is the food he wants?”
The food seller said “It’s a few cups of garri, rice and beans. Everything may be 2,000 naira”.
The other man said “Alright pack everything he wants and more. I would pay for it. Let him go home to his family and eat”.
The foodseller packed all the food and went outside to tell the man with joy that someone has paid for his food.
He saw the man still sleeping.
He tâpped him to wake him up, he didn’t respond. Tâpped him again, nothing.
The man had dīed.
He dīed sitting and waiting for help.
This hâppened just few days ago in Badawa, Kano. Some people who live in that area know this story.
The man was de@d all along while people were coming in and out of the shop thinking he was sleeping.
