‘Marriage is a scam’ – Abimbola Craig opens up about being unmarried at 38

Nigerian actress and film producer, Abimbola Craig has revealed why she is not married at 38.

In an interview with Chude Jideonwo, the media personality, Craig said she believes “marriage is a scam”.
The actress critiqued traditional marital roles where women are often burdened with home management and catering to their partners, referring to the title “Mrs” as shorthand for “Master’s in Residential Servicing”.

She also clarified that her decision to remain single is not because she opposes marriage but because she values a partner with self-awareness or purpose.
All marriage is a scam. When I was small, my mum always told me marriage is an institution. She said when they call you ‘Mrs,’ it stands for ‘Master’s in Residential Servicing’,” she said.

“I am not married, not because I do not want to be married, but if you are a man who does not know who he is, you cannot be with me.”
Craig is best known for her role as Tiwalade in the hit web series ‘Skinny Girl in Transit’. She has also made her mark as a producer, co-producing the 2019 box office hit ‘Sugar Rush’ alongside Jade Osiberu.

Earlier this year, she opened up about a near-death experience following brain surgery in 2014.
Craig recounted battling severe complications, including nausea, insomnia, and weight loss, which left her fearing for her life
