In a candid interview with Naija FM, Nigerian music star Timaya opened up about his perspective on marriage, sharing that it has never been something he aspired to. He admitted that while marriage isn’t a priority for him, he isn’t entirely opposed to the idea and could reconsider in the future.
“I’ve never been a married guy right from time, but it can change because marriage ‘dey craze’? I just look at it like if I marry today, would I be able to get out? In all my previous relationships, I was the one who got out because I don’t like stress,” Timaya stated.
The singer explained that his hesitation stems largely from his desire for personal freedom and his dislike for the complexities and stress that often come with marriage. For him, maintaining a sense of independence is crucial, and he prefers to avoid situations where he might feel confined or overwhelmed.
Timaya also touched on the importance of clear and honest communication in relationships, emphasizing how much he values transparency. “For me, relationships work best when there’s open dialogue. I’d rather be upfront about what I want and expect the same in return,” he noted.
Despite his current stance, Timaya left room for the possibility of change, suggesting that his views on marriage might evolve with time. For now, however, the singer remains focused on living life on his terms and nurturing meaningful connections that align with his values.
