“There is nothing sweet about marriage at 46” according to Olemerazi Basil, a self-styled motivational speaker who advises women not to follow in the footsteps of Nollywood actress Rita Dominic.
On Tuesday, April 19, 2022, Rita Dominic and her husband Fidelis Anosike married in a colorful traditional wedding in Imo State.
Many friends from the industry attended the star-studded event, including Nollywood royalty, Joke Silva, Uche Jombo, Kate Henshaw, and others.
However, when it comes to marriage, Basil advises that being married as a quadragenarian be avoided at all costs, due to the hazards associated with childbearing.
He feels that women who marry between the ages of 22 and 28 have a better chance of having intellectual children.
He wrote, “Ladies, please don’t follow the footsteps of Rita Dominic. There is no sweetness in marrying at 46years. At 46 you should be celebrating 20years of marriage anniversary with your husband and your 20years old undergraduate by your side, even though it is God that blesses you with kids.
“The joy of celebrating each year’s marriage anniversary is greater than the enjoyment and publicity of marrying at 46. As an educationist, I will categorically tell you that women have higher chances of giving birth to their most intelligent kids at their prime age of between 22 – and 28 so tell me how high or low the probability of giving birth to an intelligent child at 46.
“I know it is God that gives husbands but stop being selective and you will get married before 46.
“Note: Getting married early or late is not a guarantee that the marriage will not have issues that can lead to divorce.”
