Veteran Nollywood actor Richard Mofe Damijo, known as RMD, stated that having a daughter is more valuable than having three sons.
This statement comes as many Africans often prefer male children over female ones.
RMD shared his personal experience to support his view, highlighting that when his father was sick, his sister quit her job to care for him. He noted that another sister also took time off to help, while none of the brothers did the same.
In his words; “When my father was ill, my sister left her job to stay with him. My other sister left her business to work shifts with her, None of us boys left our business or work.
RMD mentioned that men who are upset about having only daughters don’t realize how blessed they are. He pointed out that they have actually won a great prize, and their complaints are just silly.
RMD stated; “Yet you foolishly complain that you have only girls? you have hit a jackpot.
RMD emphasized the significance of daughters compared to sons. He pointed out that daughters can extend a parent’s life, are less prone to mischief, and are often more compliant.
He also shared that when a daughter leaves home, she keeps her parents in her heart. As they age, she is likely to take them into her own home, regardless of her marital status.
RMD encouraged fathers with only daughters to stop their complaints and to appreciate the blessing of having daughters.
In his words; “Each of your daughters is worth 3 sons! Having a daughter prolongs your life. She will not get into as much trouble as your sons.
“She is less likely to be disobedient. When she leaves your house, she will remember you. If you are too old to leave alone, she will move you into her home, matrimonial or not. Go and thank God for having daughters!”
