Why I’m not ready to get married at 27 – Erica Nlewedim

Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) 2020 star, Erica Nlewedim, has said she is not in a hurry to settle down with a man.

The actress stated that she has the rest of her life to be married so there is no need to rush into the institution.

Erica made the statement via her Twitter page when she revealed that she will clock 27 years this year and a fan urged her find a husband.

She tweeted; “I’m turning 27 this year it’s not you that’ll tell me my own age😂”

‘Try deh think of husband naa 😩🥺🥺❤️’ the tweep advised.

In reaction, the BBNaija star said marriage favours men more because nothing about their past life changes after getting a wife.

She added that it is however different for women because a lot about them changes such as their name and their personal life.

Erica wrote; “Why rush? I have the rest of my life to be married. It’s favorable to the men cos they don’t really have to change much about their lives but a lot about the woman changes.”

In other news, a Nigerian doctor popularly known on Twitter as Dr Penking has narrated the story of a man undergoing vasectomy only to discover that his three children are not his bilogically.

A vasectomy is a surgical procedure of cutting or sealing the tubes that carry a man’s spermatozoa to permanently prevent fertilization of a woman.

Penking said the man in question contacted him last Februaru for consultation about getting vasectomy done and he assured that it is a safe procedure.

He had already welcomed three children, a boy and two girls so he and his wife decided to stop procreation.

Fast-forward to 8th of January 203, and the man sent Dr Penking DNA test results showing that all the children are not his.

The doctor said guilty conscience has been pricking him till date because he recommended the vasectomy which means the man can no longer have kids of his own.

He added that he read the DNA result and saw that the chances of the man being the 3 kids father was zero, and since then he has not been able to reply the man’s message till date.

Penking wrote; I’ve battled so much to avoid saying this but I still got to say it because the guilt is enveloping me. February 11,2022 at 9:40am, a young man approached me here on Twitter and asked to consult me. I gave him instructions and after making payment I set up a virtual consultation.

It was nothing serious, he just wanted to inquire about how safe vasectomy is. He had completed his family size, a boy and 2 beautiful girls. I assured him that it is completely safe with no major side effects apart from mild discomfort and some bruising which can actually be well-managed . I went ahead to encourage him that it is a sacrifice he can make for his wife to spare her the clouds of disruptions associated with female hormonal contraceptives. I felt even more pity for the woman when I learnt that all the 3 children were birthed through CS.

The strong woman had already gone under the knife thrice. It would have been perfect if the couple had made the decision to stop procreation before the third CS, then, immediately after removing the baby, the Doctor would have carried out Tubal ligation like I always do,

Thereby Killing two birds with one stone with no extra surgical risks. Unfortunately, Their decision came way after the third pregnancy and I felt it would be inhumane to advise him to send back that poor woman back under the knife for the fourth time, for tubal ligation.

Hence, I used every drop of saliva in me to convince him to bear the brunt for his wife this last time. He listened to me!!!!

This man contacted me on Sunday 8/01/2023, without much words, he sent me the DNA Paternity Test Results of “his” 3 children.

Till today I’ve not been able to reply him. I act like I am okay but My days are disrupted and my nights are long and cold. Last night specifically I woke up more than 7 times.

All I can read on the result is. Probability of Paternity:0% Probability of Paternity:0% Probability of Paternity: 0% Dear Nigerian Women, why do you make our job so difficult? 😥. Why????
