Sharing her story on her Facebook page, Emem stated that she lost her first husband at 38 with six children.
Years later, she remarried at 45, and her marriage had been going well for her.
Her post read:
“I read in a group where a young widow asked if she could remarry and women were bashing and telling her ‘to rest’. Da! My own take is; my dear young widow, if you see husband, by all means remarry o!
“I was widowed at 38. I remarried at 45 with my 6 children! I have a beautiful marriage and the best of husbands. One God has used to console, comfort and to hold me. (That hold eh! Very important! 😂) Don’t listen to people who haven’t lost a husband before.
“If you decide to stay widowed, it is still okay because I know, God do care for widows. Anywhere you see Gabriel Ette give him a thumbs up. Agwo Annang ade agwo uko! Sai!”
