Abstract
Despite the available body of research on the impact of socio-cultural
variables on marital stability in Nigeria, there remains a need for further
investigation, particularly in Benin, Edo state. Understanding comprehensively, the
impact of socio-cultural variables on marital stability is therefore essential for
promoting individual and familial well-being, and for identifying areas for
intervention and support that can help to strengthen marital unions. Educationally,
to some men it is very important that their wife should be less educated than
themselves if they are going to achieve marital stability. These men feel threatened in
their marital leadership role if their wives are better educated and this could lead to
conflict in the home and also create confusion between couples
