NOLLYWOOD actress, Ini Obong Edo, has revealed why she is still single at 41.
The mother of one said she is still single because she has yet to find true love.
In a recent episode of Toke Makinwa’s podcast, the thespian explained that she can’t be in a toxic relationship.
She said, “I am still single because I just want somebody that would really love me. That’s all. I’m not asking for too much.
“Not like I don’t see love. Loving somebody and being loved are two different things. You can love someone but you are not ready to be committed. Maybe this is why I’m still single: I can’t be in a toxic relationship.
“If you cannot give me that protective energy that allows me to respect you… I can not be with a man that I don’t respect. If you can not earn my respect, then we cannot be together. Because what’s the point? When it gets to the point when I start to disrespect you, that means you have brought yourself down to a point where I begin to talk back at you. Sometimes, it’s not even about having money. It’s about how you are able to love and manage situations and the people around you. Kindness!”
It will be recalled that the Akwa Ibom State-born thespian got married to an America-based businessman, Philip Ehiagwina on 29 November 2008, but the union lasted only five years, packing up in 2013.
In 2021, the actress announced the arrival of her first child, a girl through surrogacy.
