"What if I don't want to marry? Does that make me a witch? I don't wake up every day and say Holy ghost that husband. My prayer is 'Father Lord bring to me the man I need not want' Bring to me a man who will not mess up my positive aura."

"I'm very careful with who I allow into my life. Because they could be the beginning of your downfall. I find hope and solace in faith and a damn good body. Abeg."
