Apostle Lilian Aryeequaye, the former wife of the late Deputy Minister of Finance, John Kumah, has shared advice with young women on what to demand in their marriages.
In a video shared on X, Apostle Lilian Aryeequaye, while preaching to her congregation, noted that women should not agree to become housewives without putting the arrangement into a contract.
According to her, a woman’s dream is just as valid as that of a man.

She added that before a woman agrees to become a housewife, there should be a clear agreement, including a 50-50 sharing of the man’s income.
“Anyway, except you also choose to be a housewife. And if we agree that I should stay home for five years to take care of the children, let it be on contract.
“Let it be something we have agreed on. Yes, God has decided to put children in your womb, so after I impregnate you, we may spend the first six years of our lives raising the kids. You stay at home while I work, but whatever I earn should be shared 50-50,” she said.
She further advised women not to believe in men who do not believe in their dreams.

Apostle Lilian Aryeequaye explained that women also have a purpose in life and should strive to fulfil it.
“Don’t sacrifice your dream for anything. If he doesn’t believe in your dream, don’t believe in his. As soon as you stay home and become a housewife, you may no longer be attractive to him.
“We don’t work because we need money or because we are hungry. Women, that is not why we work. We work to fulfil purpose and mandate. There is an assignment God created us to accomplish,” she added.
