Your Breastmilk Is For Your Baby, Not Your Husband — Nigerian Gender Based Commissioner

Commissioner for Gender Affairs, Enugu State, Hon. Peace Nnaji, has urged mothers to reserve their breastmilk for their babies and not their husbands.

The Commissioner stated this in a remark at a UNICEF media dialogue with select journalists from South East, South South, and parts of North Central. According to her, it is wrong for men to be sharing their wife’s breastmilk with the babies.

“Breastmilk is meant for babies and not their fathers. Mothers should stop feeding their husbands with their breastmilk, it’s for their babies. It’s wrong for mothers not to breastfeed their babies for fear of having flat or saggy breast,” she said.

The Commissioner urged mothers to practice exclusive breastfeeding of their babies for at least the first six months after birth because of its numerous benefits.

She also expressed her displeasure with some musicians who release albums that tend to tease sagged breasts, arguing that if a woman’s breast are flat in the course of breastfeeding, it was a noble thing.
