A man has sparked widespread reactions on social media after sharing the story of a married woman who allegedly claimed her husband had not been intimate with her for more than three years because of spiritual instructions from an Alfa.
According to the man, the woman contacted him to seek help over her marital struggles. Although he was initially reluctant to get involved, he devised a way for her husband to respond so he could hear his side of the story directly.
He said the wife remained respectful throughout the conversation, while the husband repeatedly insisted he was facing personal challenges and would eventually change.
Husband blames Alfa’s instructions
Sharing part of the conversation, the man quoted the husband as saying, “He was told by his Alfa that the prayer he is doing requires him to stay away from his wife.”
He also said the husband explained that he was struggling financially and emotionally.
The man questioned the explanation, writing, “Like he has been praying for 1, 2, 3, 4 years?”
Expressing his disbelief, he added, “I am forced to ask, who is raising these kinds of men in the society?”
Advice to women sparks debate online
Using the incident as a warning, the man urged women to carefully investigate the background of anyone they intend to marry, especially if they suspect involvement with individuals claiming to possess spiritual powers.
He advised, “Immediately you suspect that your fiancée or husband-to-be patronizes those Alfas (the babalawos in disguise) or sorcerers, please run for your life, even if the wedding date has been picked.”
The post has since generated widespread discussion online, with many Nigerians debating the role of religious beliefs, marital responsibilities and the importance of addressing relationship issues before marriage.
