Chike, the Nigerian singer and songwriter, says he has no plans to get married, describing marriage as “a stupid step”.
Speaking in an interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo, the singer said he does not see marriage as a priority for his life.
“In my personal opinion, in fact, I think it’s a stupid step to get married, that’s my opinion,” he said.
Chike, who is popular for his love songs, also revealed that his happiness is tied to financial stability.
“For me to be happy, to be honest, I need a lot of money. This is not even canal, I won’t lie to you, I like money. I want money,” he added.
Chike further reflected on his career journey, saying he never envisioned making a living from music until after his university education.
“I would say right after my university, I knew music is what I’ll do for a living. I won’t say I knew before, to be honest, because I just used to sing and disturb everybody around me,” he said.
