In a Facebook post dated July 30, 2024, Enoch suggested that wives should support their husbands having side relationships if the men fulfill their responsibilities at home and provide for them.
He argued that a man’s commitment to taking care of his family and building homes for his partners should be enough for a wife to endorse these affairs.
Enoch also criticized those who engage in relationships without the intention of marriage. He stated that individuals who do not wish to marry their partners should let them go to find someone who will.
