Nollywood actress Dayo Amusa has delivered a message about the value of independence and accepting singlehood.
The movie star, who maintains a low profile in her love life, claimed that she is independent now because she accepts responsibility for her actions and doesn’t assign blame to others or use them as a scapegoat for her mistakes.
She declared that she doesn’t let religion or culture define who she is.
Dayo Amusa asserts that neither the color of her skin nor her gender determines how valuable she is in relation to males.
Dayo made it clear that she had the freedom to select the people in her life, as well as the beliefs, rules, and system that she feels is best for her.
Dayo emphasized that although while she is capable of standing on her own, she does not use her independence as a means of demeaning other people since she understands that every person has unique circumstances.
She clarified that her independence does not negate her need for love, companionship, or the desire to be cherished and supported by a partner.
She said: “I am independent because I take responsibility for my life. I refuse to play the blame game on anyone or make other people scapegoats for my failures. I do not allow the culture or religion to define me. Just because I am a woman doesn’t mean I am less than a man. Just because my skin may be darker or lighter than someone else’s doesn’t make me any less beautiful.
“I am empowered to choose my companions, belief system & standards, based on what I feel is right for me. I can stand on my own if need be, but I do not boast about it or make others feel small just because they can’t. Being independent doesn’t mean I do not need love. It doesn’t mean I like going home alone.
“It doesn’t mean I hate men or that I won’t submit. It doesn’t mean I will stop being feminine, sexy & ladylike. I still want to be cared for & pampered by my partner.
I desire to have doors opened & be treated to dinner. I still want to be protected & covered with assurance that everything is going to be okay. YES, I Love my independence.”
