iyanya-600x400

30-year-old singer, Iyanya stands tall as one of the most eligible bachelors in the Nigerian music scene.

With a major change in his career with this new record deal, that sexy body and obviously, no babymama, Iyanya is surely the dream of many ladies but for the singer, not being married till now is one of the things he regrets.

In an exclusive chat with Thenetng, Iyanya says,

‘I’ll be honest, It’s not very easy. If I had my way, I would have been married a long time ago, by now people will be seeing my kids. It’s not very easy trying to get this music right and then adding marriage to it. The truth is even though people think I have that bad boy reputation, I respect marriage a lot, I don’t believe I should get married and get out of it, so I’m not trying to rush into something I’ll rush out of.’

Asked what he’ll look out for in a woman when he’s ready to settle down, he says,

‘It’s hard bro. If you say you want a girl from the church, you’ll carry devil, if you say you want a dancer, you’ll carry trouble. I’m just trying to be patient and take my time and it’s even harder now that I’m famous because it’s really hard to find someone that truly cares for you when you are famous. I think this is one of the things I regret, I should have married someone way back when my mum was still alive. Back then my mum was always on my neck to settle down and at the time I always wondered why but now I see it. I’m not giving up though, I just want to make sure I get this music right. I’m 30 and I’ve not seen in the bible or any church that’ll say I can’t come to church because I’m 30 and not married [laughs].’

  4. Do you mean all the girls going to church are evil, I understand wen you say don’t marry a gal because of she behaves all holy in church, some gals pretend but that doesn’t mean good girls can not be found in church. Be wise

  6. inyanya go and marry a girl from the charllet or hotel u will marry an angel, rubish talk, always condeming women as if men are better than women, what of if u marry a man from the church what will you marry, a demon.

  7. THAT IS A VERY BIG LIES, OK LADY IN THE CHURCH AND THE LADY IN THE CLUB WHICH ONE IS BETTER, I WILL TAKE THE ONE THAT IS ATTENDING CHURCH THAN THE WORLDLY PERSON, U GUYS KNOW HOW TO CHOSE WOMAN FOR MARRIAGE, U CAN NEVER SAYS THAT A LADY IN THE CHURCH IS DEVIL, U ARE ALREADY DEVIL URSELF, SO HOW WILL U KNOW A GOOD WOMAN, DEVIL ALWAYS END WITH IT PANTHER DEVIL AND IF U WANT TO FIND A VERY GOOD WOMAN TO MARRIED, JUST GIVE URSELF TO CHRIST AND HE WILL GIVE U A BETTER WOMAN TO MARRIED, LADIES IN THE CHURCHES ARE FAR BETTER THAN CLUB LADIES, U CAN NEVER COMPARE THE CHURCH AND THE WORLD, THERE IS DIFFERENT.

Lolz…..as if ur opinion mata…..I pity una sha…e dey bite una abi? Hahahahahha……thnk God say robot don come out so we nor go need women again

  9. Itz a figure of speech, Yabaleft!!. Thatz obviously not the only thing he said. You guys should at least open the link and assimilate the sentence before condemning him. Truly, there are some devils amidst the girls in the church. Not all, all he was saying is he wants to be careful of which girl to marry. He wasn’t referring to all.

  10. When a demon goes to church to marry an innocent girl God must give him the devil because God tries the heart. So don’t be deceive God is not mock what so ever ye soweth so shall ye reap.

  11. Having that kind of mindset about girls in church simply shows u r not a member of the body of Christ which is the church
    So God will not give u His beloved daughter as He CANNOT become an in-law to your father the devil

  12. If someone who find a wife or marry wife in church marry devil, Wat about people like you dat marry in Illuminati, nd understand demonic gathering, Wat do you marry? I don’t blame you bcus you are not d one talking rather it is spirit of Illuminati in You dat is speaking.last day will be tremendous

  13. lyanya, seriously out of 12 you must see a Judas, but that doesn’t mean that all the ladies in the church are devilish. if you are spiritually loaded with holy spirit, you will surely discover your wife to be. If you say church is not the best for you to choose a wife, then go to your village shrine to get a goddess for a wife.

  14. Iyanya you can’t act the way you act and expect to marry a true believer from the church… You can only attract your like.. As the saying goes ”like attract like ” so have it on mind that no true believer will marry you from church you can only attract the devils like you said it all. #rubbish

  15. But truly, there’s a sense in every nonsense, just that ppl misunderstood him inyanya,… Many of the girls who claim holy Mary @ church are d worst set of human beings, you see them in church doing church work, dress well, so calm and Pius but when you meet them in private, omo!!!you’ll be asking yourself questions

  16. Timi,Armstrong, Megan, Dan& co, i’m not saying this to flatter u,but, really, u guys are the bomb! simply cos ur sense of reasoning isn’t based on the happenings around..& not as though u’ve not bn disappointed by some relationships that u had sometime in church, but becos u reasoned maturely that “it didn’t have to work” unlike some guys that said truely all the girls in church are devils….i’m a church girl,but i can proudly say,i am not a devil!seriously, i think u guys& that iyanya…lols…abi wetin them they call am…u all need the sure mercies of David from God!

  17. I meant Kush Bishop& the likes….God will have mercy on ur souls…I’m sure u pray to marry good women right?hmmm…..but if u continue with this notion of urs about ladies….hmm….I’m sorry…..
