Media personality, Toke Makinwa has asserted that African men are encouraged to cheat on their partners by society at large.
In a recent edition of Moments girl talk, Toke and her co-hosts, Bolanle and Tallula and guests, singers Toni Tones and Peeshuan, deliberated on the controversial topic, Why Men Cheat.
Toke who was recently involved in a very public breakup after her husband got his mistress, Anita Solomon, pregnant, said, society even pressures men to have affairs outside their committed relationships.
Her words: “Some women are the problem. Your son has four, five girlfriends. You know them, you smile in their faces.We live in a society and the culture that we have unfortunately believes that cheating is….you can’t sue a man for cheating in this country.
“If the man is selling and we are not buying, he would stop. We, women, are the problem. You find a man cheat on his wife cheat on his wife and you find reasons to make excuses for why he cheated. Maybe she wasn’t sleeping with him, Maybe she wasn’t unhappy, maybe she is a witch.
“I have had that been said to me. I have been cheated on publicly and I never saw women come out to say you know what, what this man did was wrong. You find them say is she the only one? What’s the big deal? Guess what, your child would go through it”
