“I don’t like it when you go for a wedding and they tell the bride to feed her husband kneeling down. I fed my husband cake, but I didn’t kneel. I don’t want to be a hypocrite. I can’t kneel.”
Her statement has since stirred reactions, especially among Nigerians who see kneeling as a cultural symbol of respect in marriage.

While some believe traditions should be upheld, others argue that couples should be free to define what respect looks like in their own homes.
