Olatokunbo


Olatokunbo was a Nigerian movie I once watched.

It was a story of a married woman who got the opportunity to study abroad and improve her career. She already had a kid for the husband and as at the point of her progress her husband just lost his job. He was now a stay at home dad. The wife even tried given him vacancy tips and he felt so big for the jobs the wife got.

The opportunity to study abroad came from her work place. Her husband disapproved and would not agree to her going for the study. Some family members came to sort out this case and a lot of them opposed to her trip abroad. She suggested her husband goes with her but he refused saying he can’t be sweeping for anybody abroad

Anyway, she went abroad, behaved well but ran into trouble where she stayed. The lady she stayed with told a bad story about her to the husband after chasing her out. She called her husband to explain what actually happened but he refused to see her point.

He got married to someone else before her 2 yrs of study was up. And when the wife came back he just turned his back on her and forbade their only child from going to the mother.

Please tell me:

  • Will anybody have raised an eyebrow if it was the man that got the opportunity?
  • Would the husband refuse to go abroad if the wife says no?
  • Does the wife even have anything to say in this matter?
  • Would she have remarried without a divorce in the first place before the husband gets back?
  • Does marriage mean end of achievement for women?

What is your take?
