"Publicly Confessing Infidelity is simply Self-Contempt"

A prominent Kenyan advocate David Oyatta has of recent been dragged into the public "scrutinious-eye" by his wife Njeri Mucheru-Oyatta for alleged adulterous escapades!

Njeri an avid blogger decided to 'slaughter' her husband's infidelity 'errands' on her blog www.njerimucheru.com as a way of 'unveiling' her husband's dirty-image and shockingly, in her own words, " To help my husband who i still love to turn to Jesus Christ and repent."

 Fast switch to Uganda's platform, in under a month our local media has been riddled with prominent individuals in the born-again community publicly coming out and confessing their below the belt escapades!!
The constants in both cases are kids fathered else-where!!
But kids and sex are not today our drinking pot issues, today we break-down the societal-illness of publicly 'rinsing' one's domestic matters in a self-induced effort to draw worldly forgiveness, and the move being labelled 'Godly' in cleansing one's physical and spiritual image!!

Domestic affairs primarily involve two people and on a more spread out scene, may involve more persons that are directed affected by an issue or occurrence at hand. The route to seek forgiveness, i believe should first involve the aggrieved/affected party before it spreads out to the outer-coat of the second party that must be equally directly affected by the matter.

Once you all find a common ground to either forgive each other or part ways, that should be done on a more personal disposition than inviting the whole world to poke ideas and judgement on issues they are totally alien to! The decision to seek God's forgiveness should be again a personal bargain and indulgence.

Seeking for worldly forgiveness when we are yet to find personal and spiritual forgiveness is cheap public-pity purchase that breeds self contempt and voluntary humiliation!
