Actress and producer Ada Karl has stated that her intercultural romance influenced her decision to marry a Swedish guy, Fredrik Karl, rather than a Nigerian.
In an interview with Saturday Beats, Karl talked about how much she has always admired cross-cultural partnerships and mentioned how much her husband loves Nigeria and has fulfilled all the customary requirements to become completely integrated into the country’s culture.
Proudly, she revealed his adoption of the Igbo chieftaincy title, Chief Tabaku 1 of Ibolo Kingdom.
“I have always been a lover of inter-cultural romance. My husband loves Nigeria and wants to retire here. He has fulfilled all traditional rites required to be a true son of the soil. He is now a full blown Igbo man with the Igbo chieftaincy title, Chief Tabaku 1 of Ibolo Kingdom.”
Karl also revealed that she moved back to Nigeria due to the love she had for her roots.
Due to her love for her heritage, she affectionately refers to herself as “American by birth, Nigerian by force” on social media, emphasizing her strong love for Nigeria.
“I moved back to Nigeria two years ago. I love my roots, and that is why my Instagram handle says, ‘American by birth, Nigerian by force’, meaning I have no option than to accept being Nigerian. I love being a Nigerian, and in my next life, I still want to be a Nigerian.
“I believe that Nigerians are the coolest people on earth with the greatest sense of humour. I read comments online and I see the humor in many of them. I am a graduate of Mass Communication, so I know good journalism. Those comments online reflect that Nigerians have a great sense of humour.
“Nigerians are happy people, despite all the torture and sufferings our leaders have perpetually subjected us to.
“We are very kind and generous. We live in so much lack, yet we display incredible acts of abundance and generosity when others are in need.
