– Men Must Take Care Of Women Is Not Biblical – Pastor Kingsley Okonkwo
Founder of David’s Christian Centre, Pastor Kingsley Okonkwo, has cautioned women against relying on men for financial support, stressing that such expectations are cultural rather than biblical.
Pastor Kingsley Okonkwo stirred conversations online as he stated that “It’s not Biblical for a man to take care of a woman.”
“It never favours you. That thing was a cultural idea. It’s not biblical. What the Bible says is that he that does not work should not eat,” he said.

His comments have since generated widespread reactions across social media, with some agreeing that his interpretation challenges cultural stereotypes, while others strongly disagree, arguing that scripture calls men to be providers in their households.
He further criticized women who rate themselves solely based on what men can provide, warning that such dependence often leads to mistreatment.
“The way some of you are being treated is because of how you have rated yourself. If you don’t buy me popcorn, I won’t come.
