I don’t know if I keep my home intact’ – Omoni Oboli

In an interview with PUNCH, Nollywood actress and producer, Omoni Oboli was asked the secret behind her marriage which has lasted for over 17 years, while other Nigerian celebrity marriages crash within few years, had this to say in an interview with Punch;

She said;

“I don’t know if I keep my home intact; I believe God does that for me. There are many women who do the right things and show up at every time for their husbands and still get the short end of the stick. So I don’t take credit for it. I have my moments and he does too, but somehow it has never tipped the scale and that’s because God made it possible.

Nevertheless, I believe that when you understand that you’re both different individuals who have become one, then you can try to weather any storm, knowing that if you don’t, both of you will have a dreadful life in that marriage. Enjoy it and seek for the things that make for peace because life is too short to waste it fighting.

I have an understanding husband who knows what my job entails and I don’t disrespect him, so we assume responsibilities to fill up the gaps that the other is lacking. My career keeps me away from my family often, but with love and understanding, family and career have never been at war in my home.”
