Nollywood actress Ruth Eze has shared a powerful message on Instagram, urging women to avoid making rushed decisions about marriage due to societal expectations or online trends.
In her heartfelt post, she encouraged women to prioritize finding the right partner over trying to meet others’ standards or impress social media followers.
“My sister, it’s better to wait and marry right. Don’t let the internet pressure you,” she warned. “Don’t end up marrying a madman just to pepper people who don’t even care about you. Don’t settle for someone just because he fits your spec. Calm down.”
Known for her blunt yet humorous take on serious issues, Ruth acknowledged that some women might choose to have children before marriage, which she sees as acceptable — as long as they remain focused on making the right long-term choice.
“My point is: wait and marry right. While waiting, you fit drop one, that’s okay. I’ve said my own,” she concluded.
