Nigerian comedian Bovi Ugboma has openly expressed his support for divorce, stating that he rejoices when a marriage ends. In a candid interview on The Moraya Show, Bovi explained that divorce often brings relief to at least one partner who was struggling in an unhappy union.
According to Bovi, celebrating divorce stems from his belief that no one should endure suffering in a relationship. He remarked, “I celebrate when people get divorced because I feel it means one or both people were not breathing well in the marriage. I will not suffer anybody neither will I want anybody to suffer me.” The comedian emphasized that ending a marriage is preferable to remaining in a toxic environment.
Bovi, who has been married for 17 years since the age of 29, also acknowledged that his own marriage has had its challenges. He noted, “That is not to say my marriage has been easy for 17 years. It has not. I have been providing for 17 years nonstop.”
His remarks highlight a perspective that prioritizes personal well-being and mental health over societal pressure to stay in a failing marriage.
