A group of divorced women based in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, created a buzz with their unique initiation ritual known as the 'End of an Error.' The women, who embrace the slogan 'I do, I did, and I'm done,' recently welcomed a new member, an event captured in a widely circulated video. The footage shows the jubilant women celebrating the occasion with a joyous feast accompanied by music and a cake.
The initiation has ignited a mix of reactions on social media. Many individuals praised the group's determination to leave what they perceive as toxic marriages. For instance, @Dami4Change commented on the freedom that comes with happiness, though they questioned whether the divorces were primarily due to infidelity rather than domestic violence. Meanwhile, @AdebowaleShogb3 expressed skepticism, suggesting that there are still numerous women trapped in unhappy marriages, despite the outward display of liberation.
Amidst the celebrations, some netizens acknowledged the emotional challenges that follow divorce, particularly dealing with midlife crises and the aftermath of the legal proceedings. @smileyoder empathized with the difficulties faced during this phase.
On a positive note, @YomiOtebolaku highlighted the beauty of life without marriage, emphasizing the potential for happiness and fulfillment outside the institution. However, @Lekzy_vendor presented a contrasting view, suggesting that the women's cheerful demeanor in front of the camera may conceal the inner sadness they experience behind closed doors.
In a rather cynical perspective, @Siadeyemi claimed that the divorced women serve as advertisements for young gigolos, insinuating that their pain is evident despite attempts to conceal it.
