Musician D’banj has revealed that in case he gets married, it will be a private ceremony. Asked about when he will marry in an interview with Nigeria’s Premium Times, the Oliver Twist artiste stated that marriage is his personal life.
“It is going to be a very quiet wedding because I am tired of people asking me that question”, D’banj said.
D’banj also spoke out about his recent deal with MTV where he will be hosting the show Lip Sync Battle Africa, different from the American version hosted by rapper LL Cool J. “I am not stepping into anybody’s shoes, I am only going to be playing myself ,” D’banj stated.
Here is part of the interview:
Who said I am not married? I would tell you the truth, I am not married but if I am, nobody would hear about it. It is going to be a very quiet wedding because I am tired of people asking me that question. It is my personal life and it is not going to change my music or brand.
I am not going to get married just because people want me to, neither would I do it just to enter another phase of my life just like some of my colleagues have done. They make it seem as if once you are married you have retired. But that should not be the case. Marriage would not change anything about me and whenever it happens, nobody would hear about it, there would only be speculations. My wife would not be seeking for fame because the one I have is already enough for all my family members. When I get married, it would be a very quiet one. Who knows, it might have already happened.
