I Miss Being A Bachelor — Singer D'banj

Nigerian singer and entertainer D'banj has stated that even though he is happy to be married, he misses being a bachelor.

The Koko master made the comments while speaking on being unveiled as a judge on Nigerian Idol, saying he married his best friend and for the right reason.

“It is very important for me when I say that I am so happy I got married for the right reason. There are reasons people do certain things and if one does it for the wrong reason, it would affect one. 

"I got to a stage in my life when I needed to grow an empire and in order for one to do that, one has to be stable and have a best friend as a partner.

"One also has to be true to oneself. I pray to God a lot and the Bible says, ‘He who finds a wife, finds a good thing’.

"I got married to my best friend, who knows and understands everything about me. Because of that, we could grow together. 

"Yes, once in a while, one misses those days (of being a bachelor). But, I am happy because that is the difference between Dapo Oyebanjo and Dbanj, the Koko Master. 

Whenever I get on stage anywhere, I become the Koko Master. It (marriage) has not reduced the number of Kokolets (ladies) that flock around me and rush to the stage. However, one has to be committed to one person and that is what life is", he said.
