Don’t marry a woman of same age – Reno Omokri advises men

Former presidential aide, Reno Omokri, has advised men against marrying of the same age or younger by only a few years.

In a post on his X handle, Omokri cited  religious, biological and sociocultural arguments to support his stance. He wrote;

“As much as possible, think twice before you marry a woman your age or even a bit younger than you. Take a cue from the first marriage. God created Adam. And Adam was already well settled and established in age at the Garden of Eden before God created Eve for him. They were not age mates or even in the same age bracket. At all!

“Marriage is beyond love and your emotions. As a man, you are also a biological being with bodily needs. Except you are a Ruffian who works at Arise.

“All things being equal, you will be virile and libidinous until your nineties. Women are not biologically built that way. They reach menopause in their forties. What will you do then? Become celibate and risk prostate cancer? Are you happy with the prostate cancer epidemic in sub-Saharan Africa?Or engage in extramarital affairs?

“These are the things you should consider before taking a spouse because there are bodily consequences to adopting a wholly Western way of life. What is an ideal age gal between man and wife? Ten to fifteen years is ideal. Especially if you desire a long life.

“Please fact-check me: Men who marry significantly younger women tend to live longer than males who marry their age mates or a few years younger. But to wed your senior in age is to play Russian Roulette!”
