One half of popular music couple T.W.O, Tunde Obe, who has being married for 28 years,in a recent interview revealed that he and his wife Wunmi often made sacrifices for a better future. That is one of the secrets of their marriage.
The veteran musician and dad of 3 also
advised men to get hitched to women who would support their plans and
also help them make good decisions for the future.
He said “Marrying this woman helped me
to be able to become who I am today, in the sense that we were living
beneath our means for over a decade. There are many women who will never
ever ever ever agree to live beneath their means. I will deny them of
holidays, I will deny them of new cars, of clothes, I will deny them of
everything because I was trying to build for tomorrow and she has so
much faith and belief in me and where I was taking us. Because I’m the
captain of my ship, I can’t lie, I am the captain of my own family, I’m
the head of my family and I believe that whether we sink or swim is my
responsibility.”
Tunde also added that” If you are
unfortunate not to have a wife who wants to encourage you, you can have a
hundred million and say I’m not spending a kobo of this. We are going
to continue to live like paupers because I want to do this and she’ll be
like fine, and without that peace of mind, of knowing that I was
putting things in place for our future, I couldn’t have ever achieved
it.’’
