Most men in today’s society lack respect
for the women in their lives; be it their wives or mothers. The lengths to
which such men abuse their women is really shocking. Few days ago while in a
matatu, I heard a really disturbing conversion between a radio presenter from a
local station and a lady who called on behalf of her neighbor who was being
abused by the husband.
The lady talked of how her neighbor, Grace is
being mistreated by her husband Peter, for no good reason. The husband would
beat up the wife every night for not performing her ‘wifely duties’. What’s sad
is that the wife is seven months pregnant but the husband does not seem to
care. He would come home at night and if he doesn’t find food ready, he would
beat up the wife and call her useless.
