Popular singer and skit maker Nasboi has shared his thoughts on the increasing tendency of people to use celebrity relationships as a standard for marriage.
This comes after the surprising divorce announcement of veteran musician 2Face Idibia and actress Annie Idibia.
Nasboi expressed concern over how quickly some Nigerians generalize marriage as problematic when a high-profile union fails. He reminded them that many have examples of successful and enduring marriages much closer to home.
His Message
In his statement, Nasboi cautioned:
“One celebrity divorce, then you begin to say this thing called marriage is not for me. But you forget your parents that have been married for over 30-something years.”
He urged people to avoid letting celebrity relationships define their views on marriage, emphasizing that every union is unique:
“Stop using celebrity marriages to define marriage. If you like no marry, na you sabi.”
A Timely Reminder
Nasboi’s advice serves as a reality check for those influenced by the often-publicized ups and downs of celebrity lives.
His call reminds him to focus on personal values and real-life examples rather than external, often exaggerated, portrayals of relationships.
What are your thoughts on Nasboi’s perspective? Do you agree that celebrity marriages shouldn’t be a benchmark for defining the institution of marriage?
