After Marital Issues With Wife, IK Ogbonna Gives His Thoughts on Marriage, Divorce, And Calls For A Change
Sharing his thoughts on marriage, Nigerian actor, IK Ogbonna, 35, opines that this generation must change its approach to marriage for the next generation’s sake.
The actor whose marriage is rumoured to be going through rough times posited that, people cannot continue to treat marriage like dating; that people cannot just up and go because they are no longer happy in their marriages.
He postulated that if you chose someone out of the over 7 billion people in the world, you must endeavour to always protect that person and make him/her happy; be his/her true support system. He concluded that most people get married believing a myth that it is a beautiful box full of things they have longed for such as companionship, intimacy, friendship, etc.

This is not just for me as an individual but for those who need it .
90% of marriages are unhappy and wear fake smiles and pretend to be happy while depression is the case .
First we must remember that u married a friend , a support system , not an enemy or competition. You are now one . And since u chose that person out of a world population of over 7 billion ppl , ur job is to protect that person always and make each other happy.-Ik O “Most people get married believing a myth.
