Nigerian rapper and activist Michael Stephens, known as Ruggedman, opened up about not being a husband or father yet.
The 51-year-old shared that he made a vow in his younger years not to have a child out of wedlock and has stayed true to it.
He revealed this during his appearance on the TVC program Your View.
He stated that he remains unmarried due to being jilted a few times and not yet finding the right person. In his words:
“I am not married and do not have a child yet. When I was much younger, I vowed never to have a child out of wedlock. Sometimes, I wonder whether I made the right or wrong decision. But still, it takes a lot from both parties. You have to do it with someone you really love.”
“I have met some ladies I thought I would end up with, but it didn’t work out. There was a particular lady I was supposed to marry, but a wealthy man came into the picture, and her mother separated us.”
In a 2021 interview, Ruggedman shared that his mother and family never pressured him to marry, even after turning 40. He added that he would settle down when he felt ready.
