Nollywood actress, Uche Nnanna,
has said that she does not celebrate Valentine’s day because she expresses love
to her partner every other day and does not wait until the special day to do so.
The actress made this known
during an interview with Punch, where she urged young ladies to endeavour to
always celebrate their partners and not wait till Valentine’s Day to show love.
According to the mother of
two, a responsible partner knows what to do to make their partner happy and a
loving partner would show love every day, even if they don’t have money.
In her own words, “I believe
young people who take Valentine’s Day celebration too seriously are yet to
understand life. There is no particular day when one needs to demand something
extra from one’s partner. I am a married woman, and I show love to my husband
all the time. I don’t have to wait until Valentine’s Day to let my husband know
how much I love him.
“Since I got married, I have
never celebrated Valentine’s Day with my husband, and it’s not because we don’t
want to. But, we have never had a chance to be together on Valentine’s Day
since we got married. I cannot even recollect any remarkable Valentine’s Day (I
had) while I was single. I believe people should show love to their partners
every day, not just on Valentine’s Day.”
