Relationship expert, Joro Olumofin has blasted a troll who criticized him for having a ‘relationship’ with Juliet Ibrahim despite her being a “single mother” and “divorcee”.
Joro shared a photo he took with Juliet Ibrahim at her book launch and congratulated her on her achievement. But one of his followers took this to mean that they are in a romantic relationship and the follower decided to slut-shame Juliet Ibrahim.
The troll commented on the post as thus,
“Upon all ur relationship advise na Juliet Ibrahim single mother. 2 ex husband u dey about now ??. Joro very Disappointed in u aswear. Plenty wife material dey road. But seems u no get sense after all. Ur beard don cover ur brain.”
Joro did not let the troll get off easy. He slammed him for his ignorance and also schooled him.
Read Joro’s reply below;
“So because a lady has kids or is divorced means she’s now a wife material? What a shame. Your cerebral cortex is sluggish & fallow from idleness, unemployment, frustration.Send me your CV, let me reduce your frustration”.
Recall the Ghanaian actress, Juliet Ibrahim, while decrying the rate at which single mothers are being attacked and relegated in the society, asked if men don’t deserve same treatments.
The actress who is also a single mother of one said the society praises men for being jerks and adulteress, while the women are being looked-down upon for ending the relationships, despite bearing their children.
She wrote
Isn’t it funny how people seem to forget that there is no rewind button to undo everything that didn’t work out in our lives?
When I see the attacks on single mothers including myself It’s always mind-baffling, to be honest. So what is the decision-making sin that single mothers are so badly guilty of? Being single?! Suddenly, “Single mother” is defined as a woman who’s bad and deserves bashing?!
If a single mother is not in a relationship, regard- less of the reason; she’s always to blame, yet we give men praises for being adulterers and jerks so long as he’s “good to his kids” .
If a man doesn’t get “tagged” or “bashed” for actually being at fault for why a relationship ended, why isn’t the woman given the same leniency, even if why the relationship ended wasn’t her fault? Or maybe it was her fault but it was still for the best?
Telling my story soon enough. It’s about time.
