Marriage is a beautiful thing but some dread it just as some crave for it. Some ladies are single because they don't want to lose their independence to any man while others are single because they haven't found the right partners. Marriage is not by force. Whatever may be the case, I bring to you, Nollywood most eligible spinsters. They are hot, beautiful and independent. Also get to read about why most of them are still single. Guys look well, you may just find your missing ribs here. The list include:
BIMBO AKINTOLA Bimbo doesn't bother herself much about whether She's single or not even as she's approaching her mid forties. She said in an interview: "I’m not searching for a husband, because the rumour that I’m searching for a husband has given me wahala,- all kinds of people from left, right and centre, looking for me saying they want to marry me. Please, I’m using this opportunity to tell everybody, I am not looking for a husband!"
RITA DOMINIC She will be 39 in July but is yet to say 'I do, '. Rita's opinion about marriage in an interview: "Marriage is a personal journey and you cannot look at others to judge your own marriage. My ideal family is to be married to a good man with a couple of children."
BENITA NZRRIBE She flushed her engagement ring in the toilet sometime ago due to heartbreak. Here was what she said about marriage in an interview 2 years ago:
"I will marry very soon and I don’t want to talk about it. Don’t worry, when the time comes I will give you notice! Talking about marriage who is your ideal man?I want a man that is complete. A man that will understand, respect and love me. That is my idea of a real man." Then just last year she said: “If I have to say the truth, marriage is not all about money or the little things of life. We should marry for real love. That is why I see myself as being able to marry whoever I am in love with, no matter his status in life. That is today, even if the guy is a wheelbarrow pusher, I would marry him so long as my heart is with him.”
GENEVIEVE NNAJI Genevieve seems to be enjoying her independence as a single lady. Her relationship with Dbanj couldn't materialize into marriage. In one of her earliest interviews years back, Genevieve had talked about her greatest wish : "That God continues to bless me. Especially with the right man and a good family."
TONTO DIKEH Hear what the controversial actress has to say about marriage: "For now, I have no plans for marriage, I just concentrate on my work, do the best that I can do and make myself happy, along the line, that could come in, for now, it is not what I am looking forward to.
Talking about having a child early, I just see a lot of my friends these days and they have kids and the kids are almost half their heights, strolling and shopping together, it is a cute idea, but that is not a mistake, and it is just the only thing I just regret.It doesn’t mean I am scared, not being ready is not being scared. I wish I have one (baby), so I could stroll with the baby right now."

EMPRESS NJAMAH In her mid-30s, the bulky-eyed babe said:“I’m not going to tell you what I want. But you get into an expensive shop to pick up something, because you can afford it; you see something you can afford, and then you buy it but if you cannot afford it, take a walk.“The goods are for someone that can afford them. I will not settle for less, and that’s the truth.“People come and tell you all sort of lies and want to praise themselves and say, ‘I can marry a poor man;’ the poor man no know wetin him see, abeg! I dey tell uneasy I am a real person, we all have been through tough times, we all have paid our dues one way or the other.“So no poor man must get close to me. Those who know the worth, pay the dues.”

YVONNE JEGEDE Are you not planning to get married? When the time comes, I will get married. I have never given it a thought. It’s not about thinking, it is about the right person coming my way. Many ladies have been thinking about settling down for years now, but Mr. right has not come their way.
You are saying that Mr. right has not come your way? Let’s take it like that. I don’t even have any relationship right now.
Why is it that most actresses do not want to get married?
How do you mean? Do you think that a lady would decide to remain single. As a woman, she still needs a man. If you do not have a man in your life, it is so bad. She can never be a happy woman.
Yvonne also disclosed her ideal type of man: What is an ideal man to you? I don’t even know what it is any more. But I think people at different ages have different perception in respect of what an ideal man is. He should be more intelligent than myself.I need somebody I can learn from him. He should also be able to take care of himself. That’s an ideal man for me. He should not be ugly.

HALIMAH ABUBAKAR Hear what Halimah had to say about marriage:
"Anyway, if I see somebody I have a strong connection with, I will get married. I am not saying I am young; probably I am being childish about the whole thing and I am not taking this issue serious. But I tell you, when I meet somebody I know is good for me, nobody will tell me to get married. I would want to spend the rest of my life with that guy.Right now, guys in Nigeria are players. I don’t have strength for their wahala."

Anita Joseph
“I rejected it because I cannot be a full housewife. He wants me to quit acting and become a full housewife. But I am not that type that sits at home all day. I love working. I love being busy. He said when we get married, I will quit acting. I have known him for two years and we have dated for a year. I don’t want to disclose his identity; all I can say is that his name is Mr. M. He is a good guy but he can stab you when he gets jealous. He is so possessive.”“He knows who I am. Why wouldn’t he know? He saw me on television before we eventually met. He has been following all my movies. He is not in support of my career. He wants me to quit after marriage. He doesn’t want me out because he doesn’t like my involvement in love scenes. He doesn’t want people to be looking at me and me exposing myself because of romantic scenes. Of course, I have marriage in mind. But I am notin a hurry to walk down the aisle.”

BIOLA IGE
When are we hearing the wedding bells for you?
Marriage comes naturally in the course of living and meeting people. I am not in a hurry to tie the knots. In fact, I am taking another three years to grow myself before thinking about marriage.

FUNKE ADESIYAN Funke is Saheed Balogun's ex. Here is what the busty actress said in a recent interview about her relationship and plans for marriage. Are you not thinking of marriage at your age? Like I have always said and believed, marriage is not a must for me. Everybody wants to get married but everybody is not meant to be married. There are people who are not meant to be married but they force themselves into marriage, because someone else is married. You discover that you opt out in a few months and divorce. Are you searching for the right person? I am not searching for the right person, I am in a relationship with a great man. It does not mean that we will be married tomorrow or we cannot get married today. That is not what matters to me. Marriage is the last thing, what matters is being happy together. He’s happy with me and I am happy with him, so, that’s fantastic and fine.

LIZ ANJORIN The pretty mother of one once said that she can't marry a poor man. On if she would remain single after having kids out of wedlock and is financially comfortable, Liz said: My belief is that as a single mother you still need a man. The kid or kids also need a man, either their father or stepfather, someone to tell them you are my daughter,you are my son and I don't want this or that. It's true that being single is so sweet and interesting but as a woman a time will come when age will tell and the whole thing will clear off. If you want to remain single or something, it will get to a stage that loneliness will set in because by that time the children would have grown and gone. In my own case, I don't love to be a single mother, so I will surely settle down with a man, it's just the time so I won't rush out when I go in. If you think you want to remain single because of the freedom you enjoy, the freedom will turn to another thing when the time comes.
On if she would get married this year
"If God says so, no problem but there are no plans for that now. I believe there is time for everything and I am an advocate of being happy always". So I am happy right now and when the time comes for that I won't hesitate to embrace it and be happy."

EMIOLA BADMUS The plus size actress has this to say on marriage: “What is the point if I marry today and tomorrow it's over? What's the essence? I am living my life. I will have a baby when necessary. Marriage is good but what's the essence of me getting married today and tomorrow I'm not in it? For any man I am going to marry or call my husband, we should be together for five years before we walk down the aisle. We may have children but at least after five years, I will know that you're ready for me. Not getting married today, and tomorrow he's out! I've seen it happen to my friends, I don't want to go through thattrauma.”

FLORENCE JOHNSON
Are you married? I don’t think I have heard of your being married? No, I am still very much single.
Most Nollywood women are guilty of marrying late or not marrying at all. Why is this?
I don’t know about that, it’s an individual thing and I don’t think it’s a Nollywood thing. Marriage tome, is not a rush-rush thing or a trend to follow, it’s an institution you must enter and pass. I don’t believe in divorce, so, I have to take my time for the right man who believes in my own policy to come along.
But seriously, is it that the guys don’t come or you have set high standards for yourself?
(Laughs) Would you see me like this and say guys don’t come my way? It’s not a brag, I get tired sometimes seeing guys trying to woo me, even though, I know most of them might not be with good intentions. But of course, I have my own standards when it comes to men. The man must first of all, support my career and share my own views about marriage.
What are your views of marriage: isn’t all about sacrifice?
I think it’s more than sacrifice. Yes, sacrifice is one of the many keys to successful marriage but to me, I consider trust and understanding as the main key factors.
I know what works for most women: maybe the right rich guy hasn’t come along. You wouldn’t want to marry a poor man, would you?
I am not particular about super rich dudes and of course I can never marry a poor man because I’m not poor and a poor man is a violent man. If he’s got a consistent job and doing averagely okay, that’s fine by me, we can take it up from there and build our own empire together.

EBUBE NWAGBO SPEAKS ON MARRIAGE About me being single
"Yes I am still single. The reason is that I am someone who has always believed in love. It is a big deal to me so if I have to do it, it has to be right. I am a strong believer of love. I get lots of proposals; it is so crazy I do not know who to give a chance to. I think it is a price I have to pay for stardom. Sometimes when anybody comes my way, I do not know who wants to be with me for the right reasons. I believe when that day comes, I will definitely figure out who that person is. It is not easy. What I should be talking about is not relationship but marriage. I want to go into marriage and be in it for ever. No one goes into marriage thinking of divorce, but it happens. We try our best. I think I am kind of scared, but I just have to give it a try whether I like it or not. It just has to happen and happen right; at the right time."
