Why people say marriage is not an achievement – Jullie Cassie

Promising Nigerian actress and event host, Jullie Cassie, has stated unequivocally that marriage will forever remain an achievement.

She said that anyone who opines anything to the contrary is only speaking from a place of pain probably because of failed marriage or their heart got broken.

Cassie said some single people also don’t want to do the work that comes with marriage because it is a whole lot of work.

The screen diva emphasised that simply because one relationship did not work out does not mean that marriage is any less of an achievement.

She said; “Marriage is not an achievement? Are you joking? So, what’s an achievement? Your little iPhone I guess. Marriage will forever remain an achievement.

“Most people who say marriage is not an achievement are saying it from a place of pain or choice. Pain, because they have a bad experience with marriage or their partners. And choice because some people don’t just want to do the work that comes with marriage because definitely it is a whole lot of work.

And I think it’s high time people started understanding that they can decide to not get married and not be shamed for it. Especially African parents, they need to understand that this generation is happy to grow into single wrinkled old baddies in the nearest future.

“But marriage will forever remain an achievement. Just because your heart got broken or your faves heart got broken doesn’t make it less of an achievement. I mean you can decide to drop out of school, it doesn’t make graduating from school less of an achievement.”
