Nigerians were left in shock when budding Nollywood actress, Olive Utalor rejected the marriage proposal of her fiance of several years.
The man, who is a civil servant, a primary school teacher to be precise, had proposed to Utalor on his birthday expecting his girlfriend would be pleasantly surprised and accept.
However, her reaction so much disconcerted him that he contemplated taking his own life. In fact, he was said to have stood on a road perplexed, waiting for any car to run into him.
Explaining the reason for her actions to Vanguard, Utalor said, “On my birthday last year he promised me a car and now he wants me, Olive Utalor to get married to him without a car, it’s not proper. I don’t care if he has supported me through school. I can’t be trekking under the sun when I am somebody ‘s wife. He should go and look for his class.”
“I can’t pretend that he is right for me. Yes, he saw me through the early stages of my tertiary education but that doesn’t mean we are right for each other. If he cannot get me a car there can be marriage. I’m not being callous, I’m just being true to myself,” she said smugly.
