Ghanaian soccer player Sulley Muntari’s wife, Menaye Donkor, says that being in an interfaith marriage is about the great relationship between the couple and not their individual religions.
According to her, too much emphasis is placed on religion rather than the true essence of what a relationship entails.
The couple, who married in 2010, were born and raised with two different religious values: Islam (Muntari) and Christianity (Menaye).
Speaking about the Personality Profile on Joy FM, Menaye Donkor stated that she and Sulley are more concerned with instilling values in their children than with “imposing” religion on them.
“For me, as a Christian life, it’s about living a life of Christ. How are you doing that? Are you nice? Are you compassionate? That’s more important than focusing so much on religion, “he said.
The executive director of Miss Universe Ghana added that, however, she and her husband are teaching their children the basics of each religion: Christianity and Islam.
Menaye told Lexis Bill that this will give the kids the mileage to explore their own choice of religion when they grow up.
“I want them to be great human beings, I don’t like religion too much,” he added.
