Man has fertility issues and goes “jo, bo mi lasiri” (please, keep my secret) implying she should stay and persevere. His family members say the same thing too.

Woman has family issues; husband and family members gather and introduce the woman he has gotten pregnant outside “Omo lo n pe Omo wa” (it’s one child that will pave the way for your children to come), implying she should accept it.

Maybe someday we’d address this issue and tell ourselves the truth of what we are doing to ourselves in the society.
