“Why I don’t want to get married yet” — Charles Okocha, a legendary figure in Nollywood

Charles Okocha, a prominent comedian and performer from Nigeria, has explained why, despite having two lovely children, he has never married.

In a recent interview with the “Punch,” he made this admission, saying that the peak of his single life was inspired by the present prevalence of marriage divorce throughout the world.

In support of his assertion, he said that the sorrow of witnessing his role models’ many divorces prevents him from getting married to any lady.

He stated:

“The truth is I have never been married in my life and I am a happy man. You and I know what is going on these days, you see a couple married for a couple of years and next, they are divorced.”

“People you see as role models are getting divorced and when you see them you are like what is going on? These are people you have been looking up to and now they are divorced, how then do you want me to get into this marriage thing?”

“Some say I am not going to get married. No! Don’t quote me wrong, I am going to get married most definitely, my kids are growing up, and so I need a partner that will be able to take care of their needs and mine. I will get married, but I am just taking my time.”

“I have two beautiful kids; a son and a daughter. At this time I am just focused on taking care of my adorable kids and that’s it, and that’s enough. They are my kids and they keep me motivated”
