Akande gave the warning during an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Thursday in Ilorin.
“Married couples must know that they are surrounded by people who do not want to see them happy; therefore any issue between husband and wife should not be made a public affair."
“The best thing to do is to check yourselves and make amends to suit the lifestyle of your partner instead of discussing your marriage affair with outsiders,” he said.
The lawyer, however, called on young couples to learn how to keep their affair away from friends and family members, saying third party involvement could worsen situations.
He advised spouses to learn to respect, love and care for one another, saying that “marriage is full of ups and downs, requiring wisdom and prayer”.
“It is not everything that deserves public attention; discuss it between each other and make amendments."
“Outsiders will only add petrol to fire and set your home ablaze,” he said.
