Veteran Nollywood actress Ngozi Nwosu shares her thoughts on infidelity and marriage .
In a recent interview with Biola Bayo, she stated that infidelity alone should not be a reason for a woman to end her marriage, highlighting physical assault as a more significant deal-breaker.
Ngozi Nwosu drew from her personal experience, recalling how she canceled her wedding due to her partner’s physical abuse, even while she was pregnant.
She emphasized that once a partner becomes violent, it’s unlikely to stop and advised women to prioritize their safety.
In her words:
“I had to choose between my profession and to marry a guy, and I chose my job. He gave me an option, and I chose my job.
At one point, I regretted that decision, but after that, I was like, ‘Oh wow, thank god I chose my path’.
I didn’t talk about it to the press; this is the first time I am saying it. I left him because of the battery. For me, infidelity, yes, but it isn’t enough for you to let go of your man. But, if it’s battery, I advise any woman to, in fact, not take any of their property and run for your life because they will never stop. Once a man lifts his hand on you, he won’t stop.
“For me, infidelity, yes. But it’s not really enough for you to let go of your man. I called off my wedding two days before because that day, he gave me a beating of my life. I was pregnant then, and I was like, is this what I’m entering? Because he has never done it before.”
