President Mahama has counselled men who desire a long-lasting marriage to avoid prolonged arguments with their wives at home.
According to President Mahama, if you want your marriage to stand the test of time, the best approach is to avoid lengthy arguments with your wife.
The president made the comment when a delegation from the Western Regional House of Chiefs paid a courtesy call on him with gifts to grace his 33rd marriage anniversary.
Sharing his marriage life experience with the delegation, he said, “One of the key talents you need to have if you want your marriage to last 33 years is to try not to argue with your wife”.
“When we achieved 30 years of marriage, it was a big celebration. We were sitting in our pastor’s office after church talking about the celebration that was coming”. He recounted.
His wife, he narrated, claimed all the credit for working so hard to sustain their marriage, which was 30 years old at the time.
He shared an anecdote where he tried to debate his wife’s claim that she has worked hard to sustain their 30-year marriage, but couldn’t get a word in edgewise.
His pastor’s counsel not to engage in arguments with his wife, as he would inevitably lose, he said, has stuck with him.
According to President Mahama, he learned valuable lessons from that time, as his pastor advised and avoided having arguments with his wife because he would always lose.
The delegation made a presentation to both President Mahama and his wife, Lordina Mahama.
Thinking of arguing with your wife? Don’t bother, you’ve already lost, says President Mahama.
