Singer Yemi Alade has reacted to a report about her being pressured to get married.
In a recent interview with Big Brother Naija star Tacha on Cool FM, Yemi said she does not feel any pressure to get married even though there is always a rush to get married at the end of the year.
Yemi stated: “People often get married, especially towards the end of every year. I’m not feeling pressured. When the time is right, it will happen.
Advising ladies, she said, “Family pressure is a challenging thing to resist because it’s coming from the people you respect and look up to, insisting that you should get married. However, I believe that if they genuinely have your best interests at heart, they will be patient with you because finding the right partner is more crucial than just getting married.
“But beyond that, I don’t think anyone should rush into making the wrong decision of being with the wrong partner.”
However, some media reports subsequently claimed the 34-year-old is being pressured to get married.
