Veteran Nigerian actor, Mike Bamiloye, has accused the devil of painting the majority of men black or irresponsible with a minimal percentage of wife beaters.

The Christian movie star’s comment comes amid the rise in domestic violence in the country, most notably, the tragic death of a gospel singer, Osinachi Nwachukwu, who reportedly died as a result of physical abuse suffered at the hands of her husband, Peter.

However, while addressing his followers on social media on Tuesday, Bamiloye argued that the devil is warring against the marriage Institution to discredit what God has established.

He added that anyone attacking the institution called marriage is working for the devil.

“Marriage is not a trivial matter before God! It has its root in Heaven. It is the first institution established by God and the devil feared a godly marriage.

“That was why the devil struck heavily the moment GOD brought in the union of husband and wife in the Garden of Eden. God is so passionate about it.

“Marriage is designed to produce godly offsprings that will fill the Earth and do the Will of God.

“When God blessed the man and the woman, to be fruitful and multiply and replenish the earth, He didn’t mean that they should bear bad fruits and multiply arrogant and devilish children!”

“The devil hates godly homes and marriages! That is why he has brought out wars against marriages and homes from all fronts.

“God did not intend the man to beat his wife. It is the devil’s Intention to forfeit the original plans of God for marriage. God never planned that women would be arrogant and stubborn to their husbands. It is the devil’s plan to forfeit the intention of God for marriage.

“The percentage of men beating their wives is very minimal, but the devil has used that to paint all men black and irresponsible,” he said.

“If you are attacking the marriage Institution, you are working for the devil to discredit what the Lord formed.

“If you are discouraging the young ones not to marry because of the storms the devil is causing, you are working on the devil’s side against the Lord’s Holy institution,” he said.
