My Last Relationship Was In University – Falz

Nigerian rapper and singer, Folarin Falana, AKA Falz has opened up that he last dated many years ago while in the university.
The 33-year-old single man stated this during a recent interview with Naija 102.7 FM, Lagos.

Explaining why he refused to date, he said that he’s “being careful” not to marry wrongly.
He admitted that his parents, especially his father, Femi Falana, are pressuring him to get married but he won’t allow himself to be pressured into getting married.
The ‘Marry Me’ crooner spoke during a recent interview with Naija 102.7 FM, Lagos.
Falz said: “I’m not yet married. I’m single to stupor. My dad expresses concern over my marital status daily. If I greet my dad good morning, he would say the morning will be good if you were married.
 
“Both my mum and dad are deeply concerned about my status, although my dad pressures me the most. My mum is a bit calm now. It seems like she has passed the baton to my dad. No one can pressure me into getting married, not even my dad [laughs].”
The rapper stated that the last time he was in a serious relationship was during his undergraduate days.
He explained that his status as a celebrity makes finding the right woman for marriage difficult.
He said: “Currently, I’m not dating anyone. I’m a straight man. I like women. But for a while now, I haven’t experienced a serious relationship. I was still in the university the last time I had a serious relationship.
 
“My lifestyle as a celebrity is difficult to find someone to commit to. Also, there are a lot of happenings in the industry that make having a booming career and a healthy relationship seem difficult. So because of that, I’m trying to be careful. There’s no issue. I’m just trying to be careful.”

Marriage Is Not Designed to Give Happiness – ID Cabasa

Veteran record producer, Olumide Ogunade aka ID Cabasa has revealed the true purpose of marriage.
Speaking in a recent interview with Echoo Room, he stated that the purpose of marriage is to give happiness or emotional satisfaction.
According to ID Cabasa, marriage is about fulfilling a divine purpose with God at the centre.
He emphasized that submission is a crucial element, often misunderstood as surrender.
He said: “The purpose of marriage, unfortunately, has been lost. I would say that the purpose was not to give you happiness or satisfy your feelings.
 
“Happiness and every other thing is supposed to come as a benefit to you standing with that purpose. If you follow that purpose where God is the head and he says that the man should be the head of the family which means that the man reports to God, then the woman submits to the man not surrender.
 
“In fact, there’s a condition to that submit, ‘As unto the Lord,’ which is to say as long as the man is still under God’s umbrella.
 
“So when the man leaves God’s umbrella, sincerely, the woman is void. You can’t hold her responsible for not submitting.
 
“Submission is where the problem is. Ladies nowadays look at submission as surrender. It’s not surrender.”
 
He also believes men have been reduced from their original purpose, especially in the Western world, where they are often prioritized last.
 
“The way I see them in America and in the Western world, let me tell you the order of things, there’s children, women, animals, then men. In fact, plants before men.
 
“What we [men] have been turned to now is to be silent, to keep looking. We are raising men who are dying in pain. So men are dying early,” he added.
