Yemi Eberechi Alade, a Nigerian musician and composer, has expressed her dissatisfaction with societal pressure over her marital status.
The award-winning musician claimed that she is continually pressured by family and friends to marry and have children.
Despite extensive speculations of her marriage to her manager, the vocalist and actress quietly clarified her relationship status by noting that it would happen when the time is perfect.
”People often get married, especially towards the end of every year. I’m not feeling pressured. When the time is right, it will happen.”
Speaking in a candid interview with Cool FM, Yemi Alade said
“Family pressure is a challenging thing to resist because it’s coming from the people I respect and look up to, insisting that I should get married.
However, I believe that if they genuinely have my best interests at heart, they will be patient with me because finding the right partner is more crucial than just getting married.”
But beyond that, I don’t think anyone should rush into making the wrong decision of being with the wrong partner,” she added.
She underlined the significance of choosing the perfect spouse and warned people not to hurry into making bad relationship decisions.
