CEO of the McDan Group of Companies Daniel McKorley, popularly known as McDan, has stated that he doesn't mingle with lazy men.
Speaking on Joy FM's Super Morning Show on Thursday, he explained that the hallmark of every man is to work hard and provide for his family; therefore, he cannot afford to associate himself with men who cannot.
“I don’t disrespect lazy men, but they are not my friends. As a man, you can’t afford to be lazy. You need to work hard and push yourself a little.
"I understand the system is hard, and it’s not going to be better, but we have to be innovative and visionary husbands and go on the tangent of having multiple income streams - not to be criminals," he stated.
This comes after he advised men to desist from banking their hopes on their wives’ salaries.
Despite the heavy criticisms, he mounted a strong defence for his claim, insisting a wife’s salary is solely hers and should not be preyed upon by her husband.
Mr McKorley acknowledged that though it is not wrong for women to support their husbands, there is no justification for a man to neglect his responsibility of solely providing for his family.
The entrepreneur added that the current economic situation is not grounds for a man to split financial responsibilities with his wife.
“Once you’re a husband, your integrity must stand tall. The fact remains the same. We cannot try to change the narrative. A man must be a man; a woman’s money is not your [the man’s] money.
"Women are to be respected [because] they are the sweetest and most wonderful creatures God gave humanity.
"There’s no way you should be an autocratic husband because you pay the bills. If your salary is low, it doesn’t mean you should change the narrative. But if you don’t have enough and the woman spends on you, make sure you pay back,” he stressed.
