Ghanaian lawmaker Sam George says telenovelas are the reason why divorce is so common in today’s society.
According to his theory, people try to imitate the events portrayed in these television programs because they believe they are true.
He claims that these foreign films have depicted a particular cultural viewpoint on marriage that people in the real world aspire to emulate in their own lives.
He also draws attention to the fact that many people are reluctant to devote their time and energy to maintaining a happy marriage. Sam George also stresses how important it is to pick the proper spouse to promote happy marriages.
He said this when he sat down with Berla Mundi in an exclusive interview on TV3. Find excerpts of what he said in the footage below:
The Ningo Prampram caused a huge stir not too long ago when he made it clear that he has remained faithful to his wife throughout their marriage and has challenged any woman to come forward if they have ever had an affair with him.
During an interview with Bola Ray, Sam George emphasized that he has never been involved in any extramarital relationships and does not have a side chick.
As the Member of Parliament for Ningo Prampram, he believes that his wife encompasses all the qualities of a wife and a side chick, which is why he has no desire for any other woman.
According to Sam George, the key to his faithfulness and excitement in their marriage lies in fulfilling the roles of a husband, boyfriend, and even a ‘sugar daddy’ for his wife.
“My life is work, house and church. If you know any girl anywhere, I am dating, just call her to the show, I am waiting. I am throwing a challenge out there. Anybody should bring evidence. You won’t ever see me sitting at a spot alone or with some random girl. If you see me anywhere, especially at +233, my wife is always sitting by me,” he told Bola Ray on the StarChat show.
“I tell my wife say she be my side chick and my wife. Wey me I be in sugar daddy, boyfriend, husband all put together. The thing wey boys go fit do, I dey do. Whatever, husbands do in the house, I do it. And whatever, sugar daddies do, I do them as well,” he concluded.
