Why Women Over 35 Years Should Get Pregnant Outside Wedlock – Nollywood Actress, Ayo Mogaji

Veteran Nollywood actress, Binta Ayo Mogaji, has advised women above the age of 35 to get pregnant outside wedlock.

Naija News reports that the 60-year-old movie star, in a recent interview with Oyinmomo TV, shared her thoughts on marriage, motherhood, and societal pressures.

Mogaji encouraged unmarried women over 35 to consider having children outside of wedlock if they desire motherhood.

The thespian, who welcomed her first child at 40, emphasized that women should prioritize motherhood over societal expectations and consider adoption if they cannot find a partner.

According to Mogaji, ladies above 35 often face marriage challenges.

She said, “What I’m saying is, once you’re 35 or older and you don’t have a husband, but there’s someone in your life who is with you but not ready for marriage, and he wants a child, have a child with him, even if he won’t accept responsibility for the child.

“When she is looking for a husband at 35, they’ll say she’s too old and won’t be able to wash clothes for her mother-in-law or be controlled.

“They’ll advise the man to find a younger lady to listen to him. Even if she’s fortunate to marry at that age, she’ll already be old when her child grows up. Some people at 45 or 50 are already grandmothers.

“When your mates are grandmothers, and you’re still saying you’re looking for a husband, when will you find a husband and become a grandmother?

“So, my advice is, if God blesses you with someone who likes you and you can have children together, go ahead and do it.

“If you find someone you like, ask him to impregnate you as long as you want a child and can take care of the child. But if you want a child and cannot find a man to impregnate you, then consider adoption.”
