Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde dishes out advising on choosing the right partner

Nollywood veteran actress Omotola Jalade-Ekende in a question and answer session on Twitter shared her thoughts on a couple of issues to include relationships.

On depression and suicide, the mum of 4 said;

“I am appealing to the government to immediately see to the rising rate of depression, suicide, police brutality, ritual killings and general lack of safety in the Country. It’s at an all-time high now, there should be a state of emergency declared.”

On her reason for not openly supporting any presidential candidate in the last election.

“Excuses won’t move us forward. We must be angry enough and divert our anger towards looking for real change. We need to know the use of political offices, ask questions and engage the leaders.

“I hope soon we birth a Jerry Rawlins or something of that kind. We do need a revolution. Nigeria is too big and important for it to implode. However, there are still honest people. Don’t be discouraged.”

On relationships she said

“A lot lies on your choice of a spouse. Are they understanding, mature minded and supportive? Your spouse needs to be your career partner, knowing it’s both of you against the world. If not, it’s a rocky ride ahead. However, don’t compromise your career, it’s your sanity.”
