Actor Jide Kene has shared his thoughts following Regina Daniels’ emotional video online.
In a post shared on his Instagram story, he said staying silent in situations like this is “wickedness,” adding that what Regina is reportedly going through is “inhumane.”
He wrote:
“Silence they say is golden.
But Igbo people have an adage that only a wicked elder will keep quiet when things are not going well.
I am no elder but what Pa Ned is doing to this young lady he married at 17 and has two kids is nothing short of inhumane.
This is black slavery and oppression.
Even worse is how this is not a matter on the senate floor yet.”
In his caption, he continued:
“Things are really falling apart. Marriage is not by force.
Watching this unfold breaks my heart. Coming from a background where men believed they ‘owned’ their wives, I must say to everyone supporting or joking about this — may it never come to you.
I’m praying for Regina and for anyone going through the same.”
