“There is something in a man, some call it ego. There is something that God has put in a man to provide. A man is built to not just protect but provide. Ladies, if you are dating someone that is comfortable with being jobless because you have a good job, run.

“It is a red flag because when God created Adam, the first thing God gave him was a job and when the job was too much, God said it is not good for this man to be alone. Let us give him a helper.

“One of the primary purposes of a wife is to help, to support what the man is doing, not to be breadwinner or a provider,” he said.

He also mentioned that it is understandable when bad situations happen and a woman becomes the breadwinner but when a man is comfortable for his wife to be the provider because she has a good job, such a woman should ‘run’.
