Ghanaian sex coach, Dzifa Sweetness has stated that the panties some ladies wear are capable of making men cheat on them.
According to the sex coach, some ladies become relaxed as soon as they get married and stop taking good care of themselves.
“In marriage, every lady needs to be conscious and keep herself neat. It seems some women don’t know that when they enter into marriage they should be conscious and not forget themselves. But immediately they enter into a marriage and they get a ring on their finger then they forget themselves.”
She continued:
Some ladies can wear short and sexy dresses – a lifestyle which makes the guy love her-. But immediately she is wedded then she changes. She has an attitude of wearing short and sexy cloth and the man likes it and has not complained. After marriage she changes and develops the habit of wrapping the cloth around herself from morning to evening, she leaves dirty utensils in the sink with flies hovering around it. Also, she leaves the kids pampers lying around. Immediately he – the husband- leaves the house and he finds another woman who is neat, he will never come back,” she said
She added:
Some panties can make men cheat on their partners. Some ladies have forgotten that there are women out there who are ready to take care of their men. There are some ladies who wear G-Strings but immediately they get married they start to wear ‘Jokoto’ panties to bed and if the man sees that he will leave you to another woman”.

‘This pregnancy was absolutely the toughest, most humbling, yet beautiful experience of my life. I went through hell and back. Health complications seemingly from day one. Lost friends, money, opportunities, and even some of the little bit of sanity I thought I had ?.
However, this journey taught me to be more understanding, observant, forgiving, and most importantly PATIENT ?. There were times I felt so alone and would look down at my belly and immediately cheer up, knowing she’s hanging in there with me through all of the stress and drama. She’s truly been my protection and kept me strong and going.
There were moments I began to doubt myself, but my spirit wouldn’t stay down, thanks to my beautiful little girl. Her annoying kicks would always be the reassurance I needed to make it through the tough days. Knowing what I know now and after looking back on my experience, I can confidently say she was well worth all the chaos.
From the moment I decided to keep her, I promised myself and God that I’d show her unconditional love and teach her to be 3x the woman I am. And that’s a promise that will never be broken. I’m super excited and blessed to get a chance to love and guide this little one. I can’t stop crying tears of joy when I look at her. Thank God we made it ??

Ifu Ennada has reacted to the arrest of over 70 women at an Abuja nightclub, a move she described as pure insanity and evil.
The reality show star who imagined hanging out with her friends and getting bullied and sexually abused by the police she said are hooligans, said she wrote about the incident as it affects all young Nigerian women.
Condemning the arrest of over 70 women at an Abuja nightclub, Ifu Ennada wrote;
Heard this news about some Abuja policemen who raided different nightclubs, arrested over 70 women, because they were clubbing, accused them of being prostitutes and went on to rape some of them using pure water bags as condoms.
This is pure insanity and evil. I’m writing about this because this situation affects all of us as young Nigerian women. That could have been you or me! Imagine hanging out with your girls and getting bullied and sexually abused by these hooligans all because you are dressed “a certain way” and because you just happen to be at the club.
It’s so sad that people who are supposed to be protecting us violate us every single day and most times go scot-free. Who is going to stand up for these women? What happens to the police who engaged in these despicable acts? Is this case going to get swept under the rug yet again? We need justice!
