Frank Edoho, the veteran Nigerian media personality, has made a firm declaration that he will never remarry, stating that he finds a 'superpower' in being alone. This comes after he publicly refused to give marital advice to newlyweds Peller and Jarvis, sparking a conversation about his own relationship status.
Edoho's Response to Fan's Hope
The declaration was made on his verified X (formerly Twitter) account on Sunday, in response to a comment from an X user with the handle @JJ27581708. The user had posted: "#frankedoho is being sincere. He knows a lot about marriage and knows many ways it can fail. However, knowing the psychology of Nigerians, he knows his advice will be marred, in their eyes, by his marital setbacks. Hopefully, Frank will find a woman who will show him true love."
Edoho agreed with most of the assessment but firmly rejected the final sentiment. "How wise of you. You are absolutely right about everything but that last part," the former Who Wants To Be A Millionaire host replied. "There's a superpower that comes with being alone, and it's beautiful. I'm definitely not finding any woman. Not ever."
Background: Refusal to Advise Newlyweds
Edoho's statement came after he chose to step back from offering marital advice to content creators Habeeb Hamzat (Peller) and Amadou Elizabeth (Jarvis), who recently tied the knot. He had earlier stated publicly that he knew "nothing about marriage" and could only wish the young couple well through prayers, deliberately avoiding the role of relationship counsellor.
His restraint was noted by the X user, who appreciated his sincerity. Edoho's response has since gone viral, with many social media users weighing in on his decision.
Public Reactions to Edoho's Declaration
Legit.ng compiled comments from social media users, with many supporting Edoho's stance. @Omofolaranmi01 stated: "I told one of my friends, if ever my marriage fails, I’m not ever going to embrace anything like marriage again. It’s really doesn’t worth it!"
@RichardWeb3PM noted: "A male grows from a teenager into a grown man, he looks forward to being in love with a woman he wishes to spend the rest of his life with only for all that dream to end because he married the wrong woman. This is heartbreaking but i believe uncle frank has found peace."
Edoho's Marital History
Edoho's second marriage, to Sandra Onyenucheya, ended in a very public separation that drew considerable attention across Nigerian social media. More recently, Edoho has been candid about the emotional toll his past relationships took on him, admitting to carrying real trauma from those experiences.
His first marriage also ended in divorce, and he has been open about the challenges he faced in his personal life.
Peller and Edoho's Online Interaction
In a related development, Legit.ng earlier reported that Peller and Edoho were seen having a conversation online, where Edoho told Peller he could call Nigerian singer Ayodeji Balogun (Wizkid). Peller asked Edoho to make the call, as he was eager to be friends with the singer's first son, Bolu.
This interaction highlights Edoho's continued relevance in the entertainment industry, even as he steps back from personal romantic relationships.
