Nigerians on social media are challenging a popular pastor who suggested men should not marry women who cannot cook.
The leader of Nigeria’s biggest church, Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, made the statement on Twitter on Monday:
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.#EAA78 #LetThereBeLight3 pic.twitter.com/TgeGKRv9xQ

This is not the first time the pastor's comments have caused heated debate.
He recently advised one of his followers to sack his female secretary who he lusted after in order to save his marriage.
