Omoni Oboli has opened up about the secret behind her enduring 24-year marriage to her husband, Nnamdi Oboli, revealing that their commitment to making the marriage work was sealed even before they walked down the aisle in 2000.
In an interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo, Omoni explained that their decision to eliminate divorce as an option was a major factor that sustained their union over the decades.
“Staying married for over two decades… First things first, you have to decide. It’s a decision. From day one, we decided that divorce was not an option—even before we got married,” she said.
The filmmaker emphasised the power of forgiveness, stressing that most issues in marriage can be resolved if both partners are willing to let go of offences.
“There’s almost nothing someone can do that you can’t forgive, if you want to forgive. We all have to realise that we’re all sinners,” she noted.
Omoni candidly shared that the first year of their marriage was extremely turbulent, largely because they had a very short courtship—her husband proposed just two weeks after they met, and they got married four months later.
“I was young. Till today, I don’t know how I agreed to marry him so quickly. But I know I fell in love with the way my husband loved me,” she said.
