A Catholic Priest of the Archdiocese of Abuja, Reverend Father Oluoma Chinenye John has allegedly advised men to take beer to calm down anger if Blessed Sacrament is not around, instead of taking it out on their wives.
During a sermon, the priest advised such men to leave the house and calm themselves down with a bottle of Hero if the “blessed sacrament” is not close by.
In his words: “Your wife slaps you. What do you do? A canal man, what will a canal man do? The slap will not even reach the man’s face, he will cease the hand there and break all the four fingers first, and beat the living daylight out of the woman.
“A spiritually matured progressive wife cannot slap the husband. But if you are a man and you are unfortunate and your wife slaps you, measured response. Oga, don’t do anything. Carry your cloth, go out of the house.
“If the blessed sacrament is far from you, do one Our Father, three Haile Maries, go and take one bottle of Hero. When you take one bottle of Hero, you calm down, you hear? Measured response. You begin to consult with the Holy Spirit, what do I do? You will get a response.”
