I Can't Get Married Because Others Are -- Imelda J

Benue State-born music damsel, Imelda Ada Okwori, whose stage name is
Imelda J doesn't seem very much able to keep the air of controversies
blowing her way. Since getting her name on track in the music field,
the ebony beauty singer has had one controversy or the other trailing
her.

There was a time a rumour went wild that she had a secret wedding with
music star, Jaywon, a Kennis Music deserter. Though she came out to
dispel it vehemently, her situation was later complicated and made to
look ridiculous when Jaywon's handlers came out to say Jaywon never
even met the singer, to deride earlier statement by Imelda that she
and Jaywon were close.

Then, there was the issue of Governor Suswan. There were many reports
linking her romantically with the governor. But she was able to squash
that too, saying the governor was like a father to her. "You see, like
I said, I am a very friendly person. I can't change that about me.
Maybe it's one of the reasons. I am yet to discover why. And maybe
because I am human or maybe they expect me to flaunt my boyfriend or
brag about having a relationship. And because they don't see all of
that, they assume and conclude on my behalf as soon as they see me
getting close to any man", she once told Vanguard Showtime in an
interview.

Imelda's claim to being a friendly person might have been misconstrued
severally but she hasn't helped matters with her knack for hanging out
with men. And it doesn't look like she is ready to do something about
her status, at least, to change some certain perceptions about her. "
You know marriage no be small pikin thing. I still be pikin oh. Just
kidding. When I see someone I can happily cope with for the rest of my
life. Its a spirit to soul thing. I am not in a haste. I can't get
married because others are getting married. I should get married when
the time is ripe and God has the final say" she said. But the question
is, when will Imelda settle down?
