Nigerian singer Iyanya Onoyom Mbuk, popularly known as Iyanya, recently shared his views on marriage during a guest appearance on The Kingz Corner podcast, News About Nigeria reports.
Focusing on the sanctity of the marital bond, Iyanya expressed that despite inevitable challenges, marriage remains a sacred and beautiful institution.
He underscored the need to shield one’s marriage from the public eye, emphasizing the significance of keeping cherished moments private.
In his commentary, Iyanya drew attention to the contrasting behaviours of people safeguarding valuable possessions like gold while often neglecting to protect their relationships. He highlighted the trend of happily married couples refraining from sharing every aspect of their lives on social media platforms such as Instagram, choosing instead to hold intimate moments close to their hearts.
The artist voiced concern about the contemporary inclination to expose relationship details to the public, suggesting that some aspects of one’s personal life should be shielded.
Iyanya pointed out that many successful marriages avoid publicizing their challenges, opting to cherish and resolve issues privately.
Furthermore, Iyanya discussed the impact of social media on people’s perceptions of marriage, noting that the fear of unsuccessful marriages portrayed online might discourage individuals from pursuing matrimony.
He encouraged listeners to focus on positive examples of thriving marriages rather than letting the negativity surrounding unsuccessful unions shape their expectations.
Iyanya stressed that marriages and the difficulties encountered should not be for public entertainment, emphasizing the importance of finding a special person and building a relationship based on love and sacrifice.
Through his advocacy for privacy in marriage, Iyanya aimed to inspire a reconsideration of societal attitudes toward personal relationships.
