Men Are Now Rushing Single Mothers To Marry Them – Iyabo Ojo
Veteran Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo has said that being a single mother is no longer seen as a stigma in Nigeria, noting a shift in how society now views women who have raised children on their own. According to her, men are increasingly showing interest in marrying single mothers, largely because of the experience and maturity they bring into relationships. “Men are begging us single mothers to marry them because we have experience,” she said, adding that many children raised by single mothers are doing well and thriving. Her remarks have since sparked widespread conversations online, with social media users debating changing attitudes toward marriage, parenting, and gender roles in modern Nigeria.
