Nollywood actress, Toke Makinwa, has expressed her desire to remarry.
The 40-year-old said marriage is one of the most beautiful institutions despite its challenges.
She spoke in a recent podcast interview with British-Nigerian media personality, Madame Joyce.
She said, βPeople always think I hate men or a feminist who bashes men. I have been married before and marriage is one of the most beautiful institutions.
βI see marriage like the relationship between siblings. If your siblings come to visit, the first couple of days are exciting. You guys wear matching pyjamas, sleep in the same bed, and catch up on all the lost years or lost moments. By the third day, itβs like, βClose my f*cking door. Who wore my shoes? Where are my earrings? Please, when are you going back to your house? Please, I am tired.β And that was how I saw it.
βThere were days when I would rush home to tell my ex-husband everything I had been through. And there were days when I woke up in the morning, I said, βGod, you must hate me for me to marry this idiot. This is not life; this must be hell.β That was how I saw it. And it didnβt work out many years ago. But I still fancy the institution. I do want to get married again.
