Chimamanda Adichie Tells Women not to Rush Marriage but Choose Right
Famous Nigerian author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie has advised young women to be intentional when choosing who they marry.
Speaking at the Dream Count event, Adichie pointed out how much a life partner can influence a woman’s journey. She urged women not to rush into marriage out of pressure or desperation, adding that choosing the wrong person can affect one’s life for years.
She also encouraged women to find fulfilment in themselves, no matter their passion or path. “It’s really important for a woman to have her own thing, something that brings her fulfilment, no matter what it is,” Adichie said.
She continued, “Be careful who you choose. Sometimes, deep down, you know the person you’re with isn’t good for you, but because you’re eager to settle down, you ignore the signs. Don’t settle. The person you marry plays a huge role in how your life turns out. If you choose someone who is kind and supportive, it changes everything. There are good men out there.”
It has been recorded that UNICEF has noted that Nigeria is the country with the highest number of children who have not received vaccines.
The organisation shared that especially children in urban areas are not accessible to vaccines, and this affects the numbers in Nigeria and the health of children.
“Today’s event is more than a launch. It is a shared political and moral commitment to the right of every Nigerian child to life-saving vaccines, regardless of where they are born or live.”
They shared the importance of the vaccine.
