“Nigerian men call you a dead engine once you turn 35”, Monalisa Chinda tells Genevieve

Newly married Monalisa Chinda, in an interview in the May edition of Genevieve Magazine shared her emotional journey to finding love again with childhood sweetheart – Victor Tonye Cole.

She says,

Truthfully I had categorised all men as the same useless idiots (pardon my French). I am happy that I feel differently now.

She also talks about how difficult it is for a woman in her mid 30s to find love in Nigeria.

Marriage is always a better option for any woman who is single in this country. Forget 30, once you attain 35 and counting, men in this country call you a dead engine.
