Former Kawempe South MP Hon Mubarak Munyagwa has chosen to embrace feminism and advocate for women’s rights in the context of marriage and relationships. While featured on Kasuku’s podcast, Munyagwa warned men about the pitfalls of checking their partner’s phones.

The former legislator questioned why men often have complicated security features on their phones, yet they expect women to keep their phones accessible for easy inspection.

He pondered what is so significant that men constantly feel compelled to search through women’s phones, apart from causing unnecessary emotional pain.

The vocal ex-MP stated that just as men desire privacy that they wouldn’t want their partners to invade, the same applies to women.

In his view, men should refrain from checking their significant other’s phones unless they are willing to have their own phones scrutinized.

“Men, why are you consistently going through your partner’s phone? You have a security pattern on your phone that is extremely complex, yet you expect your partner’s phone to be open for your convenience. She deserves her privacy too, which you should not violate. Consider the issues she faces at home or the people she communicates with. It’s time to stop this outdated behavior,” he remarked.

Furthermore, Munyagwa recommended against conducting paternity tests on children, stating that such actions can create unnecessary stress and potentially lead to tragic outcomes.

Regarding marrying single mothers, the PFF member asserted that if a man is not prepared to handle the responsibilities that come with a woman’s children, he shouldn’t even consider pursuing her in the first place. Ultimately, a man should treat a woman the way he would wish to be treated himself.
