“When I Was In My 20s, I Was Very To Desperate Get Married” — Chude Jideonwo

Chude Jideonwo recently opened up about his thoughts on marriage, sharing a very personal reflection from his twenties during an interview with The Podcast Network.

According to him, at that time, he desperately wanted to get married because he believed having a wife would cure his deep sense of loneliness. However, with time and experience, he realized he was simply lonely — and marriage would not have solved that.

Chude pointed out that many people enter marriages hoping to fill emotional voids, yet some end up feeling even lonelier within their marriages. He stressed that loneliness is an internal battle and not necessarily something marriage can fix.

Today, Chude says he no longer feels that desperate desire to get married. He shared how some people often tell him, “You’ve not found the right woman, You have money, you can afford to take care of children.” But he made it clear that having money doesn’t automatically make someone ready or fit to raise children. In his words, “There are many people who have money but have abandoned their children. There are many wealthy people who are not emotionally available for their kids.”

While he acknowledges that he doesn’t know what the future holds, right now, he feels no pressure. Chude also spoke about how society, especially in Nigeria, tends to put emotional and cultural weight around marriage and parenting, but he doesn’t let that affect him.

Many Nigerian artists not financially stable because of frivolous spending – Bella Shmurda

Published

Afrobeats singer Bella Shmurda has spoken about how frivolous spending is affecting the finances of many Nigerian artistes.

Shmurda claimed that many of his colleagues are unable to fund their projects without the backing of major labels because they lavish their money on trivialities.

Featuring in a recent episode of the Afrobeats Intelligence podcast, the ‘Cash App’ crooner explained that he too made a similar mistake at the beginning of his rise to stardom but later corrected it.

The singer argued that artistes do not need to spend the bulk of their earnings on expensive jewellery and cars in order to build a brand, noting that simplicity is also a form of branding.

He said, “I don’t think packaging has to be materialistic. Having good clothes on you, looking nice, nice skin, brushing your teeth, smelling well is okay, if you know how to dress without chains. I mean some of us don’t have these things before, and we looked good. This guy doesn’t have a chain on, and he looks good. He’s not dirty. I mean, that’s packaged enough for your purpose.

“It’s because of the too much emphasis on expensive packaging that our young artists now run towards advances and they end up being indebted to those companies. And the companies have to hold their catalogue for years. It’s because of these materials things that they go into debts. They can’t even fund their next project because they do use their money buy big motor. I made that mistake too but I learnt. And I feel like we just have to educate ourselves about these things.”
