TE Exclusive: Meet top 5 Nollywood actresses who are overdue for marriage

They are beautiful. They are successful, and they are popular. But they have also been ripe for the altar for a long time. The fact that they are pushing close to 40 and still single may bother us but it’s subject to debate whether they are as worried as us. Today’s Echo brings you a short list of the hottest single Nollywood actresses who are overdue for marriage

1. Geneveive Nnaji 38

Eight years ago, dark, delectable Genevieve was literarily the face of Nollywood. She won the hearts of fans with star roles in several hit movies. Even now, she is one of the crème of Nollywood A list actresses whom every Director want to feature and every man drool over.

She was once romantically linked with top politicians, including former vice president Atiku Abubakar. Genevieve is 38 and single.

2. Rita Dominic 38

If Geneveive is the dark chocolate, Rita Dominic is the brown chocolate with caramel topping. Also among the Nollywood A-listers, the pretty, fair-skinned 38-year old actress once revealed that she could have gotten married a long time ago but things didn’t work out. She also described dating as a nightmare, probably because of her ordeals. She has also been linked with Nollywood bad boy Jim, Iyke in the past.

Jim Iye recently revealed why he didn’t marry her, saying “Rita and I met when I was just beginning to embrace fame, and the comforts that came with it.”

“I don’t think Rita at that time was looking at longevity, truthfully. Don’t forget, I was the kid with the crazy afro, ready to start a fight anywhere.”

3. Bimbo Akintola 47

A well-respected veteran of both Yoruba and English language Nollywood movies, this buxom, well endowed actress is over 40 and doesn’t look like settling down soon. She once revealed that she cannot date any Nollywood actor and that she is open to the idea of being a baby mama. There have been rumours, however, that she had secretly gotten married to Nollywood actor, Yemi Blaq.

We wish her good luck in her quest and will recommend Flavour, the professional baby mama developer.

4. Ebube Nwagbo 35

Unlike Geneveive and Rita Dominic, Ebube Nwagbo is a more recent face in Nollywood. Yet it is undeniable that the 35-year-old Warri-born Anambra University graduate is one of the prettiest in the industry. She is also one of the most overdue bachelorettes in the industry.

Recently, she was asked why she is not married yet and she replied: “I believe that everything happens at the right time, which is the time that God ordains. I don’t like abandoning things halfway; I prefer to stick with it till the end. That’s why I have to be very careful about marriage.”

5. Halima Abubakar 38

Halima is the real brown chocolate. The sexy, curvy, well endowed actress is of northern origin and has been in the industry for quite some time. Pushing close to 40 and seemingly unbothered, Halima feels good in her own skin, to the delight of her fans.

She has recently  undergone surgery to remove fibroid.
