Why I can’t marry man from Ebonyi State – Actress Gina Kings
ACTRESS Gina Kings says she can’t marry someone from Ebonyi State.
In a recent interview, the Nsukka- Enugu state indigene said, “There’re some things that I can’t determine. Anything marriage is unknown to human. I’ve seen people that said they won’t marry from this tribe or that but ended up with someone from that same tribe they detest. So, I don’t know really know. But, I want a hardworking, God-fearing and tolerant man. He has to be of Igbo tribe, excluding Ebonyi State (laughs). Again, I can’t become anyone’s second wife. I am not a fan of polygamous marriage.”
Recalling her journey into the Nigerian movie industry, Gina who graduated from Abia State Polytechnic revealed that her father was against her choice of career.
“Immediately after school I went into the labour market to make some cool cash for myself and family. I’ve always loved acting but my dad was against it. Just so he doesn’t feel heartbroken I never joined nollywood until he passed on. After that, I decided it’s time to pursue my dreams. Prior to that, I already had a business of my own and I’m financially okay. So, I made up my mind to do what makes me happy. At first, it wasn’t all that easy but grace found me and I’m enjoying the career I chose.”
