I Have Nine Years Before Reaching Menopause And Won’t Kill Myself Over Marriage- Actress Halima Abubakar

In a recent interview with Punch, Nollywood actress, Halima Abubakar, slammed people who called her out for saying she is still a virgin.
Halima also revealed she is not bothered about marriage and won’t kill herself over it.
According to her, “Why would people become annoyed because I said I am a virgin? Just because I’m in the industry does not mean I am badly behaved. Not everyone is sexually active. You can have a boyfriend and not be sexually active. The reaction I got shows the mentality of the people. If I say I’m a virgin, I am and if I say I am not, then I am not. They tell me to go get married, should I go after someone else’s husband?”

Speaking further, the actress said, “Everybody thinks one should get married from age 18. A lot of marriages are complicated. Marriage will come when it will come, one doesnt need to force it. People are getting divorced with pregnancies because they got married under pressure. We should let people be. People are saying if you are not getting married, go and get kids because menopause is approaching. What kind of thing is that? Is it your menopause? I still have about nine years before I hit menopause all things being equal. I am not one of those people that will kill themselves because of marriage. I can’t have kids outside marriage.”
