“If you are aspiring to be a successful superstar as a young girl, I would advise you to get married and have kids early so that you can have the rest of your years to push your career because the family area is very important.
“I know getting married early may lead to divorce but I mean starting a family early. Maybe I should retract that because I do not mean marriage. I never thought of marriage when I had my first child, I just wanted a baby.
“So the advice is not to get married early but start having a family”.
Drawing from her own journey, Bakare encourages women to redefine their priorities, embracing motherhood and career growth without societal pressure.
