“How do you marry a teenager and expect him to be independent of his mother?” – Mary Remmy Njoku

Nigerian actress, Mary Remmy Njoku has reacted to unconfirmed reports that Achraf Hakimi’s wife will get nothing in the divorce because the footballer allegedly has all his assets in his mother’s name.
Taking to her Instagram page, she remarked that Hiba Abouk should have saved her own money or waited till he was older before getting married.

According to the ROK TV boss, Hakimi is still a boy, and there is no sane African mother who will let go completely of her teenage child, it is acceptable that his mother manages his finances.
She wrote;
“How do you marry a teenager and expect him to be independent of his parents? an african teenager there is no sane African mum who will let go completely of her teenage child. Pikin wey suppose dey do a level. Abi because na star? Most of the contracts were probably signed when he was underaged. So it wasn’t international.Every successful teenage athlete, there is a Mum, Dad, Guardian who believed in them more than they believed in themselves.A parent who put in EVERYTHING. Money, time, prayers, emotional and physiological support, tears, scolding.Someone who sacrificed the most they had just to make sure their CHILD stood out.A teenager BOY is his mother’s son. A MAN is his wife’s husband.She for wait small make he mature . Or better still, made her own money.”
