Renowned actress Iyabo Ojo has defended single motherhood, dismissing societal stereotypes and emphasising that personal growth, fulfilled children, and stability define success, not marital status.
Ojo, who raised her children alone from a young age, attributed her achievements to faith in God, resilience, and perseverance.
She stated that her daughter and son have succeeded, and her life has turned out better than many expected.
The actress, in a viral video, highlighted the challenges of parenting, citing moments of uncertainty, exhaustion, and emotional strain, but stressed that these can be overcome with faith and determination.
“There’s confusion in their midst. I’m the president-general of single mothers because my daughter has succeeded, my son has succeeded, and my life is better. When you’re raising children at a young age, you almost run mad. There were times I didn’t know which road to pass. If they told me I’d be a landlady in Lekki, I’d say it was a lie. It wasn’t me, it was God,” she said.
She also spoke on relationships, stating that both men and women make choices in marriage, and expressed admiration for fathers who actively care for their children.
“Na man go leave you, na man go marry you. Na woman go leave you, na woman go marry you. Put your faith in God and see whether God will not do it for you. I easily fall in love with fathers that take care of their children,” she added.
