Synopsis

Deji is trying to persuade Amaka, his mistress to become his second wife. We see the adverse effect his extra marital liasions are having on his home in a scene where his wife Funmi pleads with Amaka to leave her husband alone.

She tells her,

“You are young and beautiful. You can get any man. For my children’s sake… I am begging.” The wife seems to take her husbands infidelity as a given. It is more something she has to deal with herself, in terms of approaching the other woman rather than approaching him. Almost as a warning she tells Amaka that she has dealt with others before.

Perhaps she tells her this because she knows how idealistic young women are. She wants to let Amaka know that her husband is not in love with her, rather that sleeping with numerous other women is just what he does. In this sense she accepts his cheating, but it is only because this woman has stuck around longer than the others that she decides to tackle the issue.
