Only Death Can Separate Me And My Husband – Anita Joseph

Popular Nollywood actress, Anita Joseph has come out to react after a troll predicted that her marriage will end very soon.

The troll simply revealed that the movie star will one day insult her husband and he’ll kick her out.

Reacting, she wrote that marriage between couples who are determined to make it last will never scatter and she intends to be married until death like her parents.

She added that she plans to leave that example for her kids as well.

The troll wrote, “No worry… before one year now na u go still use your mouth insult your husband. Na then you go realize set relationship no be the same with marriage.”

She replied, “It’s up to God and man for marriages to end. It takes more personal effort, and that’s what makes marriage to last. My parents were married until death and I intend to leave that example for my kids, with God as my helper.”

“However, if I am to counsel a heartbroken single lady right now, the most important thing she needs to know is that there is life before (meeting) a man and there will be life after the man. The one who left you will make room for another to come. That’s life.”

Nollywood is a sobriquet that originally referred to the Nigerian film industry. The origin of the term dates back to the early 2000s, traced to an article in The New York Times. Due to the history of evolving meanings and contexts, there is no clear or agreed-upon definition for the term, which has made it a subject to several controversies.

The origin of the term “Nollywood” remains unclear; Jonathan Haynes traced the earliest usage of the word to a 2002 article by Matt Steinglass in the New York Times, where it was used to describe Nigerian cinema. Charles Igwe noted that Norimitsu Onishi also used the name in a September 2002 article he wrote for the New York Times. The term continues to be used in the media to refer to the Nigerian film industry, with its definition later assumed to be a portmanteau of the words “Nigeria” and “Hollywood”, the American major film hub.

In 2012, it was announced that Nollywood would be celebrating its 20-year anniversary. This year marked the 20th year after the release of direct-to-video movie Living in Bondage (1992), which arguably marked the boom in the video film era. The anniversary was eventually celebrated in June 2013.

President of Actors Guild of Nigeria at the time, Ibinabo Fiberesima, admitted that Nollywood is more than 20, but gave what was considered an unconvincing statement on the reason behind the event, stating: “It’s about celebrating our own even though Nollywood is more than 20 years. It’s been long that people have been celebrating us but right now, we are celebrating ourselves and giving lots back to the society. It’s a good step we have taken especially now that the qualities of our movies have improved”.
