Pastor Enoch Adeboye, General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, seems to have stepped on toes after he advised his son not marry a woman that cannot cook or do house chores.
He took to Twitter and wrote:
“My sons, don’t marry a lady who cannot cook. She needs to know how to do chores and cook because you cannot afford to be eating out all the time.”
And social media went on fire as both male and female slammed the popular man of God over his comment…
See reactions below and post:
Hello Sir, also teach your sons that cooking is not embedded in a woman’s vagina. Every damn human should know how to cook and do home chores. In marriage, a man will have to cook, clean, and wash. Teach your sons this too. A woman wasn’t born with kitechen, and washing machine.

In 2020, we still think like this. Both male and female children should be taught how to cook. It's for everyone's benefit

Before he got married, when he was still a bachelor.. Did he not cook for himself??
Or does he rent women to come cook for him??Anyways sha…Everybody with their own selfishness and entitlement

I'm beginning to suspect this account. I have a strong feeling Pastor Adeboye is not the person tweeting 🤔🤔

Sir. This is wrong on all levels. So, the reason a man and woman should marry is so that the woman can become the official cook and house chores doer?! With all due respect, I expected more from you!

My take is that Adeboye doesn’t know this account exists. It would be nice to know who the human running this account is, for furthur civil engagement. Some people need help

Mind you, he is speaking to his sons. If you are not one of them please move forward. Type your own position on this with respect for the old man. Even our parents taught us to respect old people if we wanna grow old.

Is cooking embedded in the DNA of women. Honestly now I know that wisdom does not always proceed anointing. Been a pastor doesn’t mean everything you say is right, let’s not confuse human wisdom with divine wisdom. Sir please stick to prayers and speak fewer words.
