Nollywood veteran Richard Mofe Damijo (RMD) has emphasized the significance of daughters, stating they are more valuable than three sons. This assertion challenges traditional African preferences for male children.
RMD shared his personal experience, recounting how his sisters cared for their ailing father, quitting jobs and taking time off, while their brothers didn’t.
He noted:”Men who complain about having only daughters are foolish and don’t realize their blessing. Daughters prolong life, are less troublesome, and more compliant.
They remember their parents and take them in, regardless of marital status.”RMD encouraged fathers with only daughters to appreciate their blessings, saying:”Each daughter is worth three sons! Thank God for them.”
