Reasons for not wanting to marry my partner- Iyabo Ojo

Despite not being married, Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo says she and her companion, music executive and concert promoter Paul Okoye, often known as Paulo, are happy together.

She stated that they believe “marriage is overrated” and that is why they do not want to be married.

In the most recent episode of her television programme, Iyabo Ojo TV, the mother of two spoke with veteran musician Charly Boy.

“I am enjoying my relationship,” she declared. It’s fun for me. Fortunately for me, Paulo Okoye shares my belief that marriage is unnecessary. We believe it to be overrated.

“I agree with you that marriage is overrated,” Charly Boy said in agreement. “Dad, why can’t people have a contract and say we will just do five years in marriage and if we are lucky and happy, we renew the contract?” my son asked me over the phone the other day.

It may sound corny, but different coping strategies exist because marriage is not the same as it was when our parents were married. These days, marriage is a little confused. Also, compared to earlier times, people are a little bit more individualistic. No one desires to assist others. Everyone desires their own. Thus, that is the initial source of the issue.
