Actress Ebube Nwagbo Declares, ‘Yes, I Want A Man To Marry’

When a fan attacked actress Ebube Nwagbo to go and get married instead of posting pictures on Instagram, little did she know that Ebube also desires a man to marry. In this interview, the actress who once dated musician Kcee spoke on her marital status

Why are you still single?

Nothing, I’ll get married at the right time.

Rumor making the rounds is that you are terrified of marriage, how true is this?

Wow! Well, I don’t know where that story is coming out from because I’ve not granted an interview in years, about 3 or 4-years now. So, I don’t know where that rumour is coming from. I remember saying marriage is a big deal to me and if I have to do it then it has to be right. What marriages are going through right now in my industry is crazy.

No one goes into marriage and thinks of getting out of it the next minute, but for some reason it doesn’t work out. It’s not me trying to blame anyone now, but it does happen. For me, if I have to do it, I’ve to do it right, marriage is a big deal for me if I’m going to do it, it’s going to be at the right time and not out of pressure because the same people who rush you into it would be the same people who would later make jest of you.

What are the worst things ever written about you?

A lot, I don’t even want to begin to think or talk about them. Talking about it would give them something to talk and write about. Most things written about me out there are not true, but I try to ignore and give my attention to what is more important. You can’t keep addressing everything that is written about you. In as much as people believe what they write, if it’s something I don’t want to talk about, I’ll rather not say.

The worst scandal I’ve heard is about you and Kcee, what’s your relationship like with him now?

When somebody writes something about you and it’s not true it’s painful, especially when it’s not true. If you actually did something and they are writing about it then you may feel remorse about it, but if you didn’t it, would be really heart-breaking. The thing is, I’ve developed a very thick skin, I don’t care anymore. Before, It used to affect me a lot, at a time, I said I was going to quit Nollywood. But now I think I’ve learnt how to tackle these things, based on what I do everybody doesn’t have to like you. The ones who like you like you and the ones who don’t like you there is nothing you can do about it. I’ve learnt to focus on the most important things and ignore the negative things that are written about me. I’ve learnt that the older I get the wiser I also get. I started acting in Nollywood as a young girl, so I’ve grown a lot; I’ve had so many experiences, so I see such stories as the downsides of my profession.

Are you dating anyone at the moment?

Yes, why won’t I have a man in my life? I’m a young girl, so of course, why not? If I say I don’t have a man in my life people may ask if I’m possessed or something (laughs). Yes, I want to get married but at the right time, I’m not one of those people who do something out of pressure, no, I would not do that.

What’s your ideal man?

First of all, I like a man that respects me, lots of men out there don’t respect women, especially young people like us. Being in the limelight is enough stress on its own, so you have to be with someone that respects you as a person, so respect is very key for me.
