Primate of the Church of Nigeria (Anglican Communnion), Most Rev. Nicholas Okoh, has urged young unmarried women not to be desperate in seeking life partners.
He particularly warned them against forcing men to marry them.
He gave the warning on Sunday in Abuja at the dedication service of Bishop of Kubwa Diocese, Rt. Rev Duke Akamisoko’s twin children.
Akamisoko’s wife waited for a child for 18 years.
The ceremony also coincided with the foundation laying of the Cathedral Church of St. Bartholomew, Kubwa.
Okoh said, “If you are a girl and your parents are worried that you have become a laughing stock saying ‘you are not married up till now, what are you waiting for?’ Do not allow yourself to be stampeded. Just wait on the Lord because He will give you your own.
“Do not attach yourself to married people so that you become an attachment like the one you see while travelling on luxury buses to Lagos or elsewhere. More importantly, it is not the will of God that you will be on that attachment seat. So do not take the attachment seat in homes.”
