Nigerian Celebrities: Tina Mba
Nigerian actress Tina Mba who was previously married was asked during an in interview if she misses marriage and her thoughts about it. Take a look at her response:
“No, I’m not missing marriage, trust me, I’m not. Honestly, people have asked and asked and I keep telling them that I’d rather be happy for 10 years than be unhappy for one hour because if you are unhappy, it means you would age, you will have hypertension and you won’t take care of yourself. And you can’t love other people because you are unhappy. So, I’m a free bird.”
Empress Njamah
Nollywood actress Empress Njamah also gave her thoughts on getting married saying it is not the bug on her mind right now. Empress explained:
“Marriage is not the thing on my mind right now. I cannot marry my colleague! It would be boring living in the same house with someone you know his job so well as well as his income! Should you be more popular or get richer than the man, then you are in trouble as this could be dangerous. If you are on six figures and he is on less, there is trouble. Men and their egos.”
Nigerian celebrities: Ini Edo
Finally, actress Ini Edo who had a child through surrogacy also opened up about why she’s not seeking out marriage at the moment. Ini said in an interview with Stella Dimoko Korkus:
“Right now, marriage isn’t my priority, I’ve been married before and it wasn’t exactly a bed of roses. Marriage is a good thing instituted by God and ultimately most people’s desire but I am not just crazy about the distractions and the complications that come with it.”
Okay!
What’s your take in all of these? Are you married, yourself? Do you plan to? Why? Why not?
