Father’s Day in Nigeria also sometimes passes as a good opportunity for women to call out the irresponsible men in their lives. Nollywood actress Olaide Oyedeji did not let the opportunity pass her by and proceeded to throw shade at her estranged husband. She called out all deadbeat dads on Father’s Day and also celebrated women who have been holding it down for the children since the dads weren’t taking responsibility.
Father’s Day is a time of celebration, but in Nigeria, it sometimes comes off as a day of war, considering how some people argue about whether single mothers have the right to celebrate themselves on a day meant for fathers or how some women use it as a day to lambaste the irresponsible men they had children for.
This, however, does not take away from the good fathers who are holding things down in their homes and also taking care of their children despite no longer being in a relationship with their mothers.
