If marriages are meant to be
celebrated then what happens to divorces? In the last couple of weeks what has
been pouring out of Nollywood are stories of divorce. If there are any
marriages, they are not hot enough to make good news. Okay, there are enough
movies making their rounds of the cinemas and maybe some endorsement deals are
being pulled off but aren’t they a bit of backstage stuff to take the shine out
of these divorces?
With recent divorce of Nollywood
superstar actress, Funke Akindele, it is no longer news that most marriages
involving top Nollywood actresses hit the rocks just as soon as the oaths were
taken. Maybe Funke’s drama with husband of barely one year tops the list, given
the glamour that accompanied the solemnisation of their matrimony and the
manner in which the separation was served to the public.
