Let me share few stories
A lady and I were having a conversation. We citing an example of Ned and Regina Daniel case; she jumped into conclusion that she also will do the same if she has opportunity. She said she won't marry for love but will be comfortable if a man who is wealthy can pay her bills.

I was speaking with my others guys and I one of them told me. He is not ready to marry/settle down he would just pregnant a lady foot the bills of the girl and the baby then he is achieved.

I don't want to emphasize more on the countless failed marriages we are having in our society.

Do people value d importance of marriage these days

The Nigeria economy has changed a lot of people mentality towards marriage.

People now get involved in any marriage or relationship that will favour them.

Love is no longer what attracts many to their spouses rather materials and financial benefits has become paramount in marital consideration.

The question you should ask yourself is, what is the importance of marriage? The examples you put up there at not bizarre examples as whatever ‘importance’ you ascribe to marriage can still be achieved within those circumstances.

For the lady, people have often married for financial convenience wether expressly stated or not. In fact, it is the best way to enjoy a marriage. Too many times, when there’s no money in a marriage, it results in resentments. So for her to seek stability even before going in is very vital.

For the guys who aren’t interested in a ‘marriage’ , what they really aren’t interested in is a wedding. A reasonable man who wants to tow this path will at the least do it with someone likes and cares about that he can at least be proud to say ‘that’s the mother of my children ‘. He will want to do it with someone who’s family he’s comfortable to associate with. Because he cares about his offsprings, he’ll know he has to care for their mother so the kids can grow up with the love of both parents. He’ll be respectful of the baby mama’s family so the children are well socialized and not loners in society.

Once all of these are in place, you’d find that the importance of marriage is not lost as you are imagining. It’s the importance of weddings that’s lost.

True words, People still value marriage but most are

1. Driven by the fear of being left behind, the fear of being alone in old age.

For example, in this video: the fear of being alone, a young lady named olivia narrates why she couldn't leave a cheating boyfriend who all because she was afraid she might never find a man.

2. Trapped in situationships where they're yet to clarify what things are.
If you're in such a situation, here's a video counselling session around handling unclear commitment, the money obstacles and escaping dead-end love interests

watch, learn and thank me later.

Bottom line is that nowadays marriages are simply transactional.... Nobody is ready to sacrifice anymore,to move the marriage forward..They are in it simply because of their selfish interest..

If it meets their expectations..yes

Marriages nowadays are mostly transactional.. no romance (love) without finance.

Most women want to marry men that are capable of sustaining their dreams, which boils down to the man carrying the responsibility and burdens of the woman, not for love

Most men would rather not marry for this same reason women want to marry, the reality on ground now is that a man needs a woman who is not a liability, except you are Alh Ned, unfortunately not many are him

I my self don’t see the usefulness of marrying in this age and time, when the women have this mentality I stated above 👆

It’s going to be rare to come across a woman that’s not a liability, that’s when the marriage can make a little sense

The bottom line is all 9ja girls are ashawo both the ones forming GF or church girl. They are all the same.

The fact that you have never caught your babe doing ashawo, doesn't mean she is not an ashawo

till tomorrow there will still be exceptions

As it is now, marriage has changed from what it was originally

People view marriage from different perspective

So just choose your own dream of marriage and actualize it
That's all
