But only fools think they can make 17 minute highly-opinionated videos to rubbish other people\u2019s opinions. What an irony\u201d, he further observed.<\/p>\n<p>Lydia\u2019s comments were particularly interesting, especially when she observes among other things that \u201cpeople should stop criticising the feminists for making such claims because of their vulnerability as they are entitled to their opinions\u201d but finds it objectionable when others do same.<\/p>\n<p>Lydia Forson\u2019s comment came on the back of claims by some feminists on social media that men must know how to cook before they get married, adding that women who cook for their husbands can be likened to slaves.<\/p>\n<p>But those comments had attracted a barrage of backlashes as many people of high-standing in society such Rev Dr. Joyce Aryee and journalist Afia Pokua have all condemned the feminists of setting a misplaced agenda in their fight for women\u2019s power.<\/p>\n<p>Many facebookers who also commented on Mr. Dowuona\u2019s comments appear to have also fallen in love of his views.<\/p>\n<p>View Mr. Dowuona\u2019s post below:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fsamuel.dowuona.9%2Fposts%2F10155362995080662&amp;width=500\" width=\"500\" height=\"294\" style=\"border:none;overflow:hidden\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" allowtransparency=\"true\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 65 updated by: 65 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Entertainment of Thursday, 8 February 2018 Source: adomonline.com 2018-02-08 Adom FM news editor, Samuel Nii Narku Dowuona and actress Lydia Forson Adom FM News Editor and member of acapella group, Alabaster Box, Samuel Nii Narku Dowuona, has served actress, Lydia Forson with a taste of her own foul-mouth dose.
