Despite marrying her spouse at age 21, Shade, the wife of millionaire businessman Razak Okoya, has disclosed that she has not missed anything in life.
In an interview about her marriage with BBC Yoruba on Sunday, Okoya made this claim.
“I have no regrets about marrying an older man,” the socialite said.
She claims that her decision to wed an elderly partner hasn’t stopped her from living life to the fullest.
“My husband has been very generous to me and always stands up for me,” she stated. “This is where I will be,” God said. He liked me when we first met.
I’m happy in my marriage to him. He is far older than me, but I don’t think I ever missed out on anything because I didn’t marry a younger man. I remember when he expressed his interest in me – it was straightforward, and he got down to business by meeting my parents and doing the needful in no time.”
Shade, now 48 years old, married billionaire businessman Razak Okoya in 1999, at the age of 21.
Her husband, who is currently 85 years old, was already a prominent figure in Nigeria’s business landscape at the time of their union.
She confidently stated that she has never felt deprived or disadvantaged for not marrying a younger man.
Okoya shared more insight into her marital journey, expressing deep satisfaction and happiness, and affirming that her marriage has been fulfilling and rewarding.
