“We Can’t Find Husbands”; Woman Expresses Sadness Over Ordination Of 25 Catholic Priests
Ada Egede humorously laments the “loss” of potential husbands after 25 men were ordained as Catholic priests, playfully advising ladies to hold on to their men tightly.
Yesterday, the Catholic Church ordained 25 men into the priesthood, marking a momentous occasion for the faithful but leaving some ladies with playful complaints about the shrinking pool of eligible bachelors. Ada Egede, a popular social media commentator, added a humorous twist to the news, posting, “And we no see husband marry. Ladies, the husband no not here again oo. Hold your man well ohh. Good night.”
Her post has sparked laughter and lighthearted discussions online, with many women joking about how priesthood takes some of the “good ones” off the market. Others joined the conversation, noting that while it’s a time to celebrate the dedication of these men to spiritual service, it’s also a reminder for ladies to appreciate their partners.
The ordination of priests is a significant commitment to a life of celibacy and service to God, which means these men are no longer eligible for marriage—a fact that Ada Egede’s post humorously highlights.
While her comment was clearly made in jest, it reflects the ongoing playful commentary on the evolving dynamics of relationships and marriage in society. Ada’s advice, whether serious or not, might just be a fun reminder to cherish and value the partners you already have.
What are your thoughts? Are husbands really “scarce,” or is Ada just having fun with this?
