Kyamagero emphasised that it is a husband’s duty to take his wife out to new locations every weekend or at least occasionally and to ask her about their marriage’s progress. While doing this, it’s crucial for the man to listen attentively as the woman expresses her thoughts.

He pointed out that women possess the ability to manage a household and shape it according to their desires with respect. Kyamagero mentioned that it was his wife who helped him realize that people were benefiting from his knowledge without compensating him.

She assisted him in reorganising his approach and even securing a Personal Assistant.

It’s a young husband’s duty to take your wife to a new venue every weekend, month, or whenever possible. While there, inquire about how the marriage is progressing. I recall that my wife was instrumental in helping me reorganize myself and benefit from my expertise.

Kyamagero also advised couples to refrain from treating outings like court proceedings. They should instead engage in listening, conversing, and having open discussions.

The woman ought to candidly express her views on what her husband has been doing wrong and provide guidance on how to improve.

Likewise, the husband has the duty to explain to his wife his motivations behind his actions, whether he plans to adapt, and if not, to clarify his reasons for not changing. He added that there are certain matters that men cannot always communicate to their wives as leaders, and that’s acceptable.

It’s worth mentioning that Kyamagero and his wife Linda Ndagire got married in 2019. Since then, they have lived joyfully, with him frequently drawing from his own marriage experiences to share lessons that may be beneficial to other couples.
