Support Your Husbands’ Aspirations – Senator Plang Tells Women

The Senator Representing Plateau Central (APC) in the National Assembly, Diket Plang, has advised Nigerian women to always support their husbands’ aspirations  to enable them  succeed in  their endeavors.

According to him, when a husband finds support from his wife, when they stand together in his aspirations, it gives him strength, vigour and makes him stronger, which will in turn  help him to accept results, whether success or failure.

“When the vision is successful, you both rejoice. When it is not, you console each other. Women play a key role in the success of their husbands,” he said.

Speaking to newsmen for the first time after the death of his wife, late Prof. Janet Mangvwat Plang in Jos at the weekend, when asked to state  those values his wife upheld when she was alive that he wanted other women to emulate, he said, “God is the chief architect of any marriage and the model of his design has no crack.

“For me, it is very important to know whom to marry and whom you can last with, even to old age. I thank God that I was truly married. I want to encourage wives, and husbands to have a joint dream, a shared dream. If not for the fact that my wife believed in me, I might not have been able to withstand the challenges I went through.”

“The support of a wife for her husband’s dreams and aspirations is  a morale booster. It is grace to the man’s life. I encourage women to support the meaningful dreams and visions of their husbands. And even when the husband does not succeed, because they were together in it, they would be able to bear the shock.”

He further said the family journey is a combined one, and it is always more successful when you are together, stressing that husbands should  not hide their  dreams from their wives.
