‘I still have about nine years before I hit menopause’ Read Halima Abubukar’s Clap Back at Trolls Over Pressure to Get Married

Nollywood actress, Halima Abubakar, who was massively trolled recently after revealing she is a virgin has clapped back at those who expressed utter disbelieve as well as those saying she should go get married and have kids already because she will soon hit menopause.

In a chat with Punch, Halima said,

“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?

Everybody thinks one should get married from age 18. A lot of marriages are complicated. Marriage will come when it will come, one doesn’t 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.”
