'King of bachelors' Jim Iyke
They are mature and of age. They have made considerable fortunes from the entertainment industry. They have acquired fame and name. But in spite of all the comfort, they are yet to walk down the aisle with a lady. They are very eligible for marriage yet they remain bachelors. Meet the 11 of them. Enjoy.
JIM IYKE
Jim is known to have been going in and out of relationships with the opposite sex, even within the industry, but none has evolved into marriage. At 42, the Anambra State-born graduate of Banking and Finance from the University of Jos seems to be catching his fun as a bachelor.
UTI NWACHUKWU
He was the proud winner of Big Brother Africa season 5 and was well celebrated far and wide for this uncommon feat. His fans had thought that the Delta State born dude would soon after, consummate his fortunes with the lucky lady in his life but even at 36 years of age, that hope is yet to become a reality.
FEMI JACOBS
Femi shot to limelight through the movie titled The Meeting. The Osun State-born actor who holds a degree in Mass Communication from the Lagos State University, LASU, is yet to consider settling down with a wife.
OSITA IHEME
At age 36, the light skinned actor of the Akin and Paw Paw fame is yet to choose a lady as wife even though his partner, Chinedu had since settled down in marriage. Osita awards scholarship every year to students of his local government area in Imo State to study in various Universities, yet his numerous fans are anxiously waiting for the time the Computer Science graduate of the Lagos State University will say “I Do” to a lady of his choice.
GIDEON OKEKE
Gideon studied Biochem at the Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka in Anambra State. Up till this moment, the handsome star in the popular television series, Tinsel, is yet to consider marriage.
MICHAEL GODSON
He is 33 years old, he hails from Imo State and holds a degree in Theater Arts from the University of Jos. He became popular with his role in the movie titled The Seven Books of Moses. Michael is yet to make up his mind on marriage.
BRYAN OKWARA
Bryan was well celebrated when he won the Mr Nigeria competition some years back. Now 33 years old, the Imo State-born star does not seem to have the word “marriage” in his dictionary, at least for now.
FREDERICK LEONARD
He came to limelight with his role in the movie titled Accident. Is it also an accident that at age 42, this Anambra State-born actor is yet to settle down in marriage?
KALU IKEAGWU
His role in the popular television series, Domino, stands out. At 40, one would have expected this University of Nigeria Nsukka graduate to have dumped bachelorhood years ago but that is yet to happen.
NONSO DIOBI
He acted alongside Hilda Dokubo in the hit movie Border Line some years back and that marked the beginning of his stardom. He has starred in many other flicks since then, with all the accrued financial benefits, yet this University of Nigeria Nsukka Theater Arts graduate from Anambra State has not found a wife even at the age of 39.
ALEX EKUBO
Since the mesmerising role he played some years ago in the movie titled “Sinners in the House” directed by Lancelot Oduwa Imasuen, Alex’s profile has been on a steady rise. But at age 32, the Abia State born Mass Communications graduate from the Calarbar Polytechnic is yet to say “I Do” to any lady.
