Renowned Nollywood actor Richard Mofe-Damijo, popularly known as RMD, recently shared his candid thoughts on the challenges of marital fidelity. In a candid conversation with comedian Teju Babyface, RMD expressed that remaining loyal to one's spouse can be a formidable task, citing that married men are often the target of individuals with less-than-honourable intentions.

Acknowledging the complexities of marital fidelity, RMD stated, "It is very hard, let's face it. Every one of us that is married is the target; I mean, look at women; how can we escape it." Drawing parallels to historical figures with dubious intentions, like Jezebel and Delilah, he emphasised the importance of standing firm against such influences.

In his analogy, RMD likened the situation to being a commander on a battlefield, underscoring the need for men to fortify their defences. He highlighted the significance of open communication with one's spouse, ensuring they know the challenges and taking proactive measures to guard against potential threats.

"It's like being a general; it's like being a commander on a battlefield. You drop, and the battalion scatters. It is very difficult; you have to get to a point where your wife understands what she is up against as well because if she is not up to speed or up to date on what she is up against, then your flanks are open," he emphasised.

RMD also addressed that swiftly leaving a marriage after a single instance of infidelity may not reflect a deeply rooted foundation. He suggested that a more nuanced approach and understanding of the complexities within a marriage can lead to stronger, enduring bonds.

In summary, RMD's insights shed light on the intricate dynamics of marital fidelity and the necessity for couples to navigate these challenges with open communication, mutual understanding, and a steadfast commitment to one another.
