I’d Rather Be A Second Wife Than A Side Chick – Lolo 1

Nollywood actress and media personality Lolo 1 has said that she would rather be a second wife than a man’s side chick. She recently opened up about relationship values and morality, and Nigerians have been reacting.

Speaking during an interview with Bimbo Akintola, Omotunde Adebowale David declared that she prefers a polygamous man to a man who cheats on his wife.

According to her, a married man having a side chick is what she cannot stand, and it is better if the man marries more than one woman to satisfy all his needs at once.

“I would rather a man be polygamous than for him to be married and have a side chick.

That’s the one I would not contend with,” she said.

The former Wazobia FM OAP further noted that being a recognised wife carries more dignity than hiding in a man’s shadow.

He concluded by saying that men sleeping around despite being married is a norm that has to change in Nigeria.

“I would rather have polygamy than have you have a side chick.

Let us all come to the marriage and suffer together,” she added.

WOW.

Nollywood is a sobriquet that originally referred to the Nigerian film industry. The origin of the term dates back to the early 2000s, traced to an article in The New York Times. Due to the history of evolving meanings and contexts, there is no clear or agreed-upon definition for the term, which has made it a subject to several controversies.

The origin of the term “Nollywood” remains unclear; Jonathan Haynes traced the earliest usage of the word to a 2002 article by Matt Steinglass in the New York Times, where it was used to describe Nigerian cinema.

Charles Igwe noted that Norimitsu Onishi also used the name in a September 2002 article he wrote for the New York Times. The term continues to be used in the media to refer to the Nigerian film industry, with its definition later assumed to be a portmanteau of the words “Nigeria” and “Hollywood”, the American major film hub.

Film-making in Nigeria is divided largely along regional, and marginally ethnic and religious lines. Thus, there are distinct film industries – each seeking to portray the concern of the particular section and ethnicity it represents. However, there is the English-language film industry which is a melting pot for filmmaking and filmmakers from most of the regional industries.
