Story Highlights
Former Big Brother Naija housemate Elozonam Ogbolu expressed deep doubt about marriage during an interview aired on February 5, 2026. Speaking on the WithChude podcast, he revealed that witnessing the dramatic collapse of unions among his close friends has left him unconvinced that he needs to marry.

Elozonam is rethinking the necessity of marriage for his life. The reality TV star opened up about his fears during a candid session on the WithChude podcast.
He explained that his view has changed over time. Constant exposure to failed relationships has shaped his current mindset significantly.
A history of broken vows
Elozonam noted that many friends he once celebrated have now split. He watched these unions crumble despite their promising starts. This wave of separation mirrors a trend where Iyanya rules out marriage the personal reason I cannot commit yet.
The actor finds the nature of these breakups alarming. He stated that the unions often end in conflict and public drama.
He stressed that there are rarely clear reasons for the splits. The confusion surrounding these failed marriages makes him question the institution itself.
The social media factor
The narrative of failure dominates the online space. Elozonam observed that bad news travels faster than stories of successful couples. This public scrutiny contrasts with how Nancy Isime sets strict marriage conditions at 34.
Happy couples tend to stay off the radar. The star believes they focus on living their lives rather than posting about it.
He has chosen to step back from these conversations. Elozonam wants to protect his mental space from the negativity.
For now, he remains unconvinced that marriage is a must. The actor is prioritizing his peace over societal expectations.
