Prioritize having kids over marriage for career success – Laide Bakare advises ladies

Nollywood actress Laide Bakare has encouraged career-driven women to prioritize having children over getting married.

In an interview with Nollywood On Radio, Bakare shared her views on achieving long-term career success, stating that marriage is not a prerequisite for starting a family, drawing from her personal experience.

“If you are aspiring to be a successful superstar as a young girl, I would advise you to get married and have kids early so that you can have the rest of your years to push your career because the family area is very important.

“I know getting married early may lead to divorce but I mean starting a family early. Maybe I should retract that because I do not mean marriage. I never thought of marriage when I had my first child, I just wanted a baby.

“So the advice is not to get married early but start having a family.”
