Popular Nigerian singer, Iyanya has opened up about his constant struggle with staying celibate, revealing that his endurance often breaks whenever he meets attractive women.

In a candid conversation on the Afropolitan podcast, the ‘Ur Waist’ crooner explained that he often ends up with regrets whenever he broke his celibacy but struggles to stay consistent.

“My celibacy fluctuates; it goes up and down. Sometimes you are trying to stay celibate and you run into a girl who gives you all the reasons not to be celibate. You do what you have to do, you now start missing the celibacy again,” he explained.

The 39-Year-Old singer said he is not considering marriage now because he believes he is not yet mentally ready.

“I am not thinking of getting married… So, I am very honest when I meet people now. I think that is what has helped me a lot. When I meet you I don’t go, ‘Oh! I’m crazy about you.’ When I meet you I go, ‘Listen, I’m healing. Don’t expect so much from me.’

“Maybe, when I was younger, I wouldn’t mind, I would just say what you want to hear. But now what has really helped me a lot is just saying, ‘I’m not in that space and I’m not going to lie to you or play with your emotions’,” he added.
