In the face of several reports of domestic violence which is fast claiming the lives of many married partners, celebrity OAP Toke Makinwa has advised those who are not enjoying their marriage to summon the courage of walking out.

She said it is better to quit than waiting to be killed or going to the extent of killing their partner out of anger, “nobody is worth throwing the rest of your life in jail or even worse a death sentence for,” she added.

Toke gave the advice in a series of tweets via her Twitter handle.

Toke noted that though most Africans are always quick to say that divorce is not an option, a sin and not in our tradition, they will however only cry when one “throws his or her life away”.

“If someone is threatening your peace pls separate from them,” she said.

She tweeted;

“I know some conversations are tough but they must be had, nobody is worth throwing the rest of your life in jail or even worse, a death sentence, anger is evil, choose your mental health and walk away always. It’s hard, it’s tough but one minute of anger can take away everything.

“They say divorce is not an option and it’s a sin, and it’s not our tradition but if you die or kill someone cos of anger, the same people that “said” will only cry with you as you throw your life away, try separation first and if things don’t get better, choose you.

“Life is tough, people are angry, there is frustration in the land. The only sanity you can guarantee is yours. If someone is threatening your peace pls separate from them, at least you can both be alive to raise your kids, and maybe one day find a resolve, stop testing yourself.”
