Kiitan Bukola Opens Up About Her Fears of Marriage.
In a heartfelt discussion on the latest episode of the ‘Talk to B’ podcast, Nollywood actress Kiitan Bukola candidly shared her apprehensions regarding marriage. She attributed her fears to a challenging childhood marked by the absence of paternal love and support.
Bukola revealed that she grew up without the nurturing presence of a father, stating, “I don’t have a father who cared how I wanted it. Like, I didn’t enjoy the love of father to mother together. So, it hurts me a lot.” This experience has profoundly influenced her desire to create a stable and loving environment for her future children, a privilege she felt she was denied.
Reflecting on her past relationships, Bukola expressed a strong desire to avoid the pitfalls she has witnessed in the marriages of friends, noting that she longs for her children to experience a nurturing familial structure. “I don’t want to have children out of wedlock. I want my children to experience fatherly care,” she emphasized.
Despite her love for the institution of marriage, Bukola admitted to feeling intimidated by it. She articulated a vision of an ideal partner—someone who is understanding, prayerful, and capable of distinguishing between her professional commitments and home life. Her previous relationship, which ended due to alleged infidelity, left a lasting impression, reinforcing her need for a supportive and respectful partner.
As Bukola navigates her fears and aspirations for the future, her story resonates with many who have faced similar challenges, highlighting the complexities of love and family dynamics in contemporary society.
Nigerian singer Naira Marley’s family life has become a topic of public interest after Instagram model and TikToker Sandra Benede publicly acknowledged being the mother of his twin daughters, Aishat and Simiat Fashola.

Speculation regarding a potential relationship between the two figures arose in May 2022 following a birthday greeting from Ms. Benede to Mr. Marley. The recent confirmation now sheds further light on their connection and the children’s parentage.
Nollywood actress Mary Njoku has recently ignited a debate regarding the necessity of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) examination for university admissions in Nigeria. In a statement posted on her Instagram story, Njoku questioned the need for JAMB and post-UTME, arguing that the Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE) should be sufficient proof of a candidate’s completion of secondary education.
Her statement comes amidst recent controversy surrounding JAMB, particularly following widespread reports of mass failures in the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examinations (UTME). While JAMB has admitted to errors and announced retakes for affected candidates, Njoku’s questioning highlights a deeper concern regarding the redundancy and potential inefficiencies within the current university admission process. The actress’s comments add fuel to an existing debate about the effectiveness and fairness of the JAMB examination in evaluating a student’s readiness for tertiary education.
