For Bob-Manuel Udokwu, spanking is not the only way to discipline a child. The veteran Nollywood actor who has been married to Cassandra, an educationist, for about 16 years and are blessed with two kids also revealed other details about his marriage to Punch.
On who the stricter parent is Bob-Manuel: We both do our bit as parents but I think my wife is stricter since she spends more time with the kids. I don’t believe in spanking especially as the kids are growing. Sometimes, a good talk does the job
Cassandra: I am the stricter. On accessing each other’s phones Cassandra: Yes we do and we answer each other’s phone calls when the need arises. Women tend to develop a lot of anxiety as a result of going through their spouse’s phone. It is totally uncalled for so couples must learn to trust each other.
Whether they own a joint account Bob-Manuel: No we don’t and it is not an issue for us. Moreover, I think the foundation of a marriage matters a lot. Owning a joint account is not proof of love. My wife knows when I am down financially because I tell her. Also, there is no film I shoot or project I am involved in that I don’t tell her how much I’m being paid or offered. I am only able to do this because I trust my wife.
On how he has remained scandal free Bob-Manuel: I carry myself with dignity, self-respect and professionalism. As my career progressed, I learnt from the experiences of others, which may be unfortunate. I also had to determine not to go down that route. So, I deliberately walk away from situations that will bring out certain unpleasant results.
