Prophet Kofi Oduro, General Overseer of Alabaster International Ministries, has offered advice to men on appreciating their wives.
In a video shared on TikTok on March 4, 2025, he was seen preaching to his congregation, emphasizing the importance of acknowledging their wives’ efforts, especially when they cook.
He further explained that house chores are not solely a wife’s responsibility, urging men to take an active role in household duties as well.
“I have always been telling people that if you need someone to cook for you, you don’t need to get married before you do that. You can hire a chef to do that. The person can prepare any food of your choice… Marriage isn’t about cooking, cleaning, and washing of clothes.
“If I want someone to clean my house, there are a lot of young boys in my village I can go for to come clean my house for me. Don’t make up your mind that it is marriage is all about cooking… Be thankful to your wife whenever she cooks for you because that is an extra job,” he said.
He then asked men to quit feeling entitled.
“When she brings you food, you have no right to criticise the food. Don’t say there is no salt in the food. If you say that you are speaking like you have some entitlement… You are not entitled to any because she is only helping you.
“Don’t sit there idle and watch Netflix and tell your wife who just returned from work to cook for you. You can ask well cook for her… You the young ones have made marriages disgusting,” Prophet Oduro added.
