Famous Nigerian author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie has shared important advice with young women on why it is very important to pick the right person to marry.

She spoke during a recent event called “Dream Count” and told women that their choice of a husband can greatly affect their future. She warned that marrying the wrong person can bring lasting problems, so it’s important to choose wisely and not out of desperation.

Adichie also talked about how women should find happiness for themselves. She encouraged them to go after their dreams and do things that make them feel fulfilled — no matter what those things are.

She said, “It’s important for a woman to feel fulfilled in life. Sometimes you know deep down that the person you’re with isn’t right for you, but you still want to get married. Don’t settle. Be careful who you choose. The person you marry can make a big difference in your life. If you choose someone kind and supportive, your life will be much better. There are good men out there.”

Her words touched many young women, and they shared their own thoughts and stories online.

One woman, @alhaja_wendy, wrote, “Well said, who you choose to marry will affect your destiny either positively or negatively.”

Another user, @her_majesteeze, added, “She spoke facts, who you choose to marry will affect your destiny.”

@dr_pinesol said, “I am grateful to my partner, God’s gift to me. Peace of mind and his kindness wan wound me.”

@olajumokebabes described Adichie’s message as “feminine and powerful.”

And @thefoodnetworknig2 gave a warning to women who waste their education and future with a man who doesn’t support or care for them.

Adichie’s message is clear: women should value themselves and make wise decisions, especially when it comes to marriage. A good partner can bring peace, growth, and happiness.
