Yoruba actress Iyabo Ojo made no secret that she can not be with a poor man. Since her marriage broke up, she has yet to remarry. But now she is ready to give matrimony another go. She made it abundantly clear she isn’t in s hurry to marry just anyone.
Here is what she told Sunday scoop:
If marriage comes along, yes I will consider it. Then, I used to say that I didn’t want to get married again because of the stress involved. Now, I have had a rethink. But I can’t marry a poor man. Some people will say I shouldn’t say that, but I am a blunt person.
For someone like me, there is no love without money. I am a celebrity and I am expected to maintain a certain lifestyle, which is expensive.”
She said she is the breadwinner of 7 people and a celebrity so has a lot of responsibilities.
“I have a lot of responsibilities. As a breadwinner and celebrity, how do you expect me to marry a poor man? Where do you expect us to start from? I am not ready to add any man’s problems to mine. I don’t need the man to be very rich, but he must be able to feed himself and me. You don’t even have to cater for my other responsibilities.”
