My Failed Marriage Did Not Weigh Me Down – Monalisa Chinda

Popular Nollywood actress, Monalisa Chinda has talked about things we never knew about her first marriage.

The movie star simply said it was a marriage that happened when she was quite naive and she does not regret how it ended.

According to her, she never allowed the experience to weigh down, so she simply moved, improved herself and found love again.

She added that her age has compelled her to allow the younger generation to take over from where she stopped in Nollywood.

Her words, “I’m not there on the screens as I used to be. I am getting older and need to give room for the younger generation to take over.”

“I am producing movies now. That’s another reason I slowed down a bit. But this year 2020, you would see me gracing more of your TV screens.”
