[p]Controversial Nigerian actor Uche Maduagwu has shared his perspective on the impact of African culture on women in marriages, citing his mother as an example of women who had to endure in their marriages. According to Maduagwu, the African culture has deteriorated the lives of many women in marriages because it is believed that women must endure in marriages irrespective of the pain it brings them.

[p]Maduagwu believes that the issue of tolerance in marriage is one of the biggest problems in African culture, which should be addressed. He stated that this particular act is preached more to women than to men, perpetuating the idea that women should endure in marriages. He argues that marriage should not be an endurance union, but rather an enjoyment union, and that women should not settle for less.
[/p][p]Maduagwu encouraged women not to be objects of endurance decoration in marriages, and to walk out if they are not enjoying the marriage. He emphasized that women should not endure another man's irresponsibility, and that it is okay to leave a marriage that is not working.
[/p][p]In Maduagwu's words, "Dear Ladies, #MARRIAGE is not an ENDURANCE union, but an #ENJOYMENT one, don't settle for LESS. There is something wrong with some of our #African culture, for example, TOLERANCE in Marriage is often preached more to women than men, why? Both in #Churches and Mosques, they tell women to always ENDURE inside Marriages, to me, this is our biggest problem, women are not object for Endurance #Decoration in Marriages, if you are not Enjoying that Marriage, dear Ladies, kindly walk out, don't Endure another Man's IRRESPONSIBILITY. My #Mum went through a lot in her Marriage because of Endurance, if it not working, it not working, move out. Happy Easter."
