Media mogul and popular Nigerian blogger Linda Ikeji, has
revealed the kind of man she wants to marry.
36-year-old
Linda, when asked if she has been getting proposals from suitors and qualities
her kind of man must possess, said:
“I’m
getting quite a lot of proposals. You know people say when a woman is
successful, men run away, it’s a lie, that is when they chase you the more. But
unfortunately, I haven’t seen what I’m looking for. To be honest, I keep
telling people, it’s not like men are scarce, it’s the type of man some of us
are looking for that is scarce, if I want to marry next year I can, but he
would not be the kind of man I want.
I want a
man that I can look up to, someone that inspires me, someone that would push
me, someone that would motivate me, somebody that has had some success in his
own career path, then I can look up to him and be like “wow”, a man that
teaches me and I can learn from. I’m inspired by successful people, someone
like Tyler Perry, I can’t wait to meet him.
I can’t
marry a poor guy, I’m being honest about it, no I can’t, he doesn’t have to be
very rich but let him be successful in his own way. You may come across some
successful men but there is something wrong there, so the whole package is what
I’m looking for.
When I was
like 30-years old, my standards were very high, extremely high, but I wasn’t
looking at marrying, I was just focused on work because I’ve always been so
ambitious that I wasn’t focusing on marriage or kids. I felt like I should just
do what I wanted to do. It was just recently that I began to think about
marriage, and to be honest, my requirements are only three now.
He must be
successful, he must be a good man, in the sense that he must be supportive of
me, if he tries to stifle me then I’m out. Lastly, he has to be a man that
likes sex and must be very good at it”, she stated.
