Nigerian singer Sola Allyson has moved conversation after openly admitting that marriage has never brought her joy. Despite still being legally married, she revealed that she and her husband now live in separate homes.
Speaking on the Oyinmomo Podcast, Allyson described marriage as one of the toughest aspects of her life. She said she has never experienced the kind of happiness many people associate with being married.
“I must confess that I am married, but my husband and I decided to live apart; he stays in his house, and I stay in mine,” she said. “Marriage has been a big challenge. I hear people talk about joy in marriage, but I have never experienced it.”
Allyson added that although she tried her best, the marriage “has not been successful.”
She also used the platform to clear up a long-held assumption about her career. Contrary to popular belief, she said she is not a gospel artist but just an artist with her own message and style.
“I am not a gospel singer. My name is Sola Allyson,” she said. “Jesus does not need promotion, so I do not have to call His name in every song.”
