"I don't believe in Marriage..Nigerian men are too controlling"-Yeni Kuti on being Single in her 50's

 Yeni who is the daughter of Afrobeat legend,Fela Anikulapo-Kuti is in her 50's,single, and loving it..Here is what she told the Sun....
"I am still single because I have lost all interest in marriage and I don’t believe in the institution any more. Nigerian men are too controlling and overbearing for me and I am already set in my ways. Besides, I have been on my own for too long. My major concern is training my daughter. I praise married women; I think they are the real stars of this country. Women in their husbands house looking after their husbands and children are amazing especially the ones with nine to-five jobs who come back home tired and still go to the kitchen to cook for their husbands. These are the women that women magazines should be celebrating because they are the real super women. Men are not easy to look after; I can’t do that so I duff my hat for such women. When my only child clocked two, I was separated from my ex-husband.  I am now in my 50’s and I am not thinking about having another child and I have no regrets. I don’t believe in having kids with everyman that comes my way. Maybe I could have had more kids if I had re-married but since I never remarried there was no need for me to have more kids. My marriage didn’t work because we couldn’t get on together after two years. Right now my daughter is the most important person in my life. I am still single and I have found a suitable man but right now, marriage is the last thing on my mind. Yes, it is true that you never can say never because things happen. But if ever I want to get married again, you will be the first to know."

  14. well to my own saying marriage is not by force and not everyone is ready for marriage. Marriage is a huge commitment and not everyone is not ready for it its a huge responsibility and child bearing its not easy and if marriage is not for you, don't get marriage cause its hard work and why do people trip if a woman is not yet married. there are reasons why she/he doesn't want to get married. there are some people in the world that don't want to get married they rather be single that to be in a commitment that cant cope with. So pls if marriage is not for you, don't get married they are people in this world that have found happiness being single and living life as good as married couples.
