Funny enough, I had never heard of the word magun until I moved to the United States. It was when I moved here that I knew there was such a thing – whether myth or reality. When I hear stories of people being so consumed with a type of love that is so close to hate (and/or frustration), so much that they get off the deep end and do something crazy like kill the object of their anger/obsession and then kill themselves, I wonder if they are crazy. And then, on second thoughts, I begin to rationalize their action(s), saying that perhaps, they were pushed to (or beyond) their limits. But what’s the difference between using magun on and killing your partner?
When you love a person to the point of destroying him/her when he/she messes up, is that still love? When you place an embargo on a person’s private part, promising death or perpetual uselessness to whoever dares to climb this person, do you still convince yourself that it is love? I have never met a person who did/does magun. If I have, I am not aware of it. I have never met a person who is a victim of magun either. But on tomorrow’s show with Mo, a woman boldly steps out, saying that she was a victim of magun.

ifeakor chiemeka oluchi says
One who trusts his wife has no right to put magun on her. Indirectly he is killing people. So what happens if she is not actually cheating? What even happens the day you forget you put magun on her and sleep with her? This is against the bible. Why cant a a man follow what the bible says? The bible says a woman who cheats on hef husband, the husband has every right to divorce her. That same bible also says what stops him from forgiving her? One should be careful of what they do before doing what they would regret. Ifeakor Chiemeka Oluchi. Caleb University imota
