Nollywood actress Miriam Ogbonna has shared her views on marriage and family planning, stating that she does not believe it is wise for couples to have a child within the first year of marriage.
According to the actress, the early stage of marriage should be devoted to understanding one’s partner and building a strong foundation, adding that introducing a child too soon could place unnecessary pressure on a new union.
Her comments sparked mixed reactions online. While some social media users agreed with her stance, noting that having a child in the first year of marriage can significantly alter a couple’s lifestyle, others argued that the decision should depend on individual circumstances such as cultural expectations and personal goals.
A married man who joined the discussion suggested that unless a couple had lived together for at least a year before marriage, it may be wiser to spend the first year focusing on each other before welcoming a child.
