A man that cannot contain his anger is NOT a man – Eva Alordiah speaks on domestic abuse

Rapper Eva Alordiah has penned her thoughts on the  rampant increase in Domestic Violence against women and
rape menace in Nigeria.

In an exclusive interview with YNaija, the ‘lights out’ crooner began saying: “First I think any man who cannot contain his anger within him or channel the energy someplace else in the time his emotions are fired up, is hardly a man at all. It is absolutely savage to look at a girl, or woman and think you should take her against her will, or beat her.”

On proffering solutions to the problem, she said  “This isn’t a problem that can be solved, except of course you want to remove the emotion of anger or whatever it is that breaks a man’s ego down in minute particles to the point where violence seems a logical response. For a lot of men, it starts from an inherent need to keep the ego intact. For a lot of girls involved with and still staying with men who are violent or have shown signs of violence with them, it is a question of value.  How can the feminine folk begin to give value to themselves? How do you see yourself as a girl? What do you think you deserve? What kind of man is deserving of you?”
She added: “If you don’t give value to yourself, enough to know when to take a walk from a relationship that brings you pain, enough to know when to walk away from a man that is quick to aggression or has shown aggressive tendencies, enough to look yourself in the mirror and realize you deserve better and much more, then there’s a problem. So there’s a lot of work to be done in building value for ourselves as women.
