Nollywood actress, Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde, has given her opinion on marriage. According to the thespian, any lady who is not financially stable should not consider marriage.
Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde further revealed that she decided to get married at age 18 because she was working and was already a millionaire.
During an recent interview with BBC Yoruba, the actress said, “One must apply wisdom or common sense in everything one does. People cannot say that because I married at 18, therefore they can also do it. The question is, ‘are you ready for marriage’? When I was 18, I was ready. I had been working since I was 15-year-old and I had become a millionaire at the age of 18. That is a fact that a lot of people don’t know.
"I had my own money. I was not dependent on any man. Moreover, my father died early, so I was already responsible for my younger siblings. I was like their mother at that time, so I was very mature and financially prepared.
"One should not marry a man when one is not financially stable. If one does that, one would be going into slavery or better still, prison. If any of my children, after considering all these factors, say they are ready for marriage, we (parents) would meet the person and if we like them, we would give them our blessings.”
Just so you know, the brand influencer is currently married to captain Matthew Ekeinde, they tied the knot in 1996 and their union have been blessed by the four Children: Princess Ekeinde, Captain E, Meraiah Ekeinde, Micheal Ekeinde
