Nigerian comedian and actor, AY Makun, has spoken out against the culture of blaming couples when their marriages fail. His comments came after singer 2Face Idibia announced his divorce from his wife, Annie Idibia. Many people online reacted by criticizing the couple, leading AY to address the issue.

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), AY reminded people that no one gets married expecting to divorce. However, life happens, and some marriages don’t work out. Instead of offering support, many online users shame and criticize couples when their relationships break down.

AY pointed out that these negative reactions only make things worse. He explained that people going through a divorce are already dealing with emotional pain. Hurtful comments from strangers can push them into depression or even suicide.

The comedian urged people to be more understanding and compassionate. He believes that rather than focusing on who is to blame in a broken marriage, society should ask why so many marriages are failing in the first place.

Instead of attacking couples, AY encouraged people to support those struggling in their relationships. He stressed that everyone deserves kindness, especially during difficult times like divorce.

AY Makun’s message serves as a reminder that we should approach others’ struggles with empathy. Divorce is never easy, and judging those who go through it only adds to their pain. Instead of pointing fingers, it’s better to offer support and focus on solutions to strengthen marriages in today’s world.
