A Nigerian clergywoman, Pastor Julie, has said that her 39 years of marriage has been successful because she decided to play the fool.

Pastor Julie, who offered marital advice to married couples based on her own personal experience of being married for 39 years in a trending video, said she had to play the fool in her marriage for it to work.

She explained that she had to learn to let go of her pride and ego and instead focus on building a strong and healthy relationship with her husband.

She advised that to sustain a marriage, one has to play the fool, even when you know you’re right.

“I have come to realize in these 39 years of being with my husband…I realized I had to play the fool for my marriage to work, playing the fool even when I know I am right.

“Foolishness in a relationship. For you to sustain your marriage, you have to play the fool. Playing the fool when even you know your right from your left. The man is claiming right, you are claiming right, it will not work,” she said.

In other news, a journalist, identified as Maynard Manyowa, has taken to Twitter to reveal that his biggest mistake in life is marrying two wives.

The man, who described himself as a ‘former polygamist’, made this revelation while reacting to a Twitter user who declared that polygamy is the future of marriage.

He explained that he is not in support of polygamy because of his personal experience with his two wives, and urged men to desist from polygamy otherwise they won’t have a peaceful life.

According to Maynard, he loves his first wife and only married his second wife to save her from the shame of being single. However, over time, he almost lost his first wife that he loved deeply because he wanted to keep his second wife.
