CurrentReport Blog In a candid conversation on a recent episode of the ‘Heroe’s Diary’ podcast, Nigerian dancer and internet sensation Korra Obidi addressed her life following her highly publicized divorce from ex-husband Justin Dean. The mother of two, known for her vibrant personality and outspoken nature, made it clear that finding a new partner is not on her current agenda.
Despite the end of her marriage over two years ago, Korra Obidi continues to face public scrutiny about her personal life. Addressing these concerns head-on, she stated unequivocally that she is not looking for a new partner. Instead, her focus has shifted to financial independence and personal growth.
“Serious Nigerian woman, when I marry the man becomes my life. So now I’m trying to put that energy into making money so I don’t end up homeless like I was,” she expressed. “I know that nobody is coming to save me in a knight and shining armour so I need to focus on the money.”
Korra Obidi’s statements highlight a significant shift in her priorities since her divorce. She underscored the importance of financial stability and independence, reflecting on past hardships and the necessity of self-reliance. This pragmatic approach comes after her experiences of navigating life as a single mother and a public figure.
Her forthrightness about using her energy and efforts towards making money rather than remarrying resonates with many who advocate for personal empowerment and financial independence, particularly for women.
Korra also took the opportunity to address the ongoing public interest in her failed marriage, urging people to move past it. She expressed frustration at how her marriage continues to be a focal point for many, despite it ending years ago.
“I want to make a public service announcement. I’m not the only person that got married in Nigeria. In fact, my marriage was not even public. All you people saw was one post on Instagram: ‘Korra is taken.’ You people are now carrying the marriage to tie my legs. It has been two years [since my divorce], please leave me alone. I am single as a dollar bill. And I am not searching. I have many boys that service me,” she declared.
Korra Obidi’s remarks on the podcast shed light on her current life philosophy and future plans. Her focus on self-reliance and financial success over traditional marital roles represents a broader narrative of empowerment and independence.
