Why I don’t advise ladies to marry before age 28 – Venita
Reality star Venita Akpofure has shared her perspective on why she thinks women should wait until they are 28 before getting married. In an interview with Tacha on Cool FM, Venita advised young women below the age of 28 to avoid rushing into marriage.
She emphasized the importance of enjoying one’s youth and suggested that marrying too early could lead to feeling tied down.
Venita, who is currently in a relationship with her boyfriend from school, encouraged women to explore life and have various experiences before committing to marriage.
She expressed her belief that it’s essential for young ladies to take the time to discover different aspects of life before making the significant decision to enter into the union of marriage.
In addition, Venita mentioned that she wouldn’t permit her own daughter to marry before the age of 28. She stressed the idea that allowing young women to mature and experience life before settling down is crucial for their personal development.
“Because you’re going to change your mind and you don’t know all of who you are at 20-something. Don’t get me wrong, there are people who are mature oh. But you need to try different things in life, different experiences, to be sure of okay, I want to be stuck here. Because it’s handcuff, you’re there.”
“Because you’re stuck – that’s the social idea. Unless you’re Westernized like me, then you’re unstuck, you can unstuck yourself. I’m divorced. The ones that are enjoying now, ‘ll probably still reach a time where they’ll probably hate each other and still have to be in the same space.
“I’m telling you! Why do you think to say them get madam room and oga room? When the ground is shaking and I need space, I need space. Be in your room, I’ll be in my room. To me, an ideal marriage, my husband would have a wonderful house here, and mine would be over here, and there would be magnificent corridors connecting the two houses.”
