Legendary talking drummer, Ara has just revealed that not only is she open to marrying again following her divorce, she is also open to dating and marrying a younger guy.
In a recent interview with PUNCH, Ara said:
“When I meet the right person and fall in love, I will consider marriage. I really want to fall in love again. I don’t believe in marriage just for its sake. If a younger guy comes up to me, I don’t mind dating the person. I don’t mind marrying somebody who I am older than. I have spoken to a couple of people and they don’t see anything wrong with it. If the person has a mature mind and is committed, then it is not a big deal.”
When the reporter asked if she was looking for somebody she could control and manipulate (because that’s how a lot of Nigerians view older woman/younger man relationships), Ara said; “I am not that kind of person. I am the most submissive wife. I am ‘mumu’ for love. You can ask my ex, he can tell you. There was never a day I didn’t ask him what I should cook even though I was the breadwinner. I would always ask him what he wanted. And whatever he said, if we didn’t have it, I would jump on an okada and enter the market to go and buy the stuff. I am a hopeless lover.”
