Famous Yoruba Nollywood actor — Yomi Fash-Lanso claims that he used to wear a fake ring for years just to get scare women away from him.
According to him, many women around him were ready for marriage and he wasn’t so he had to wear a fake wedding ring to get them off him.
He also said that even with the wedding ring on him, ladies still want to date him when he approaches them after explaining to them his wife lives outside the country.
You must have dated so many people before you got married?
When you talk about marriage, it is all about emotions. Because I knew I wasn’t ready for marriage, I went and bought a wedding band and started wearing it so that ladies would think I was married. I wore that band for many years. I would meet a girl and tell her I liked her and when she asked about my wife, I would tell her my wife was abroad. If she wouldn’t mind, we would date. If another girl saw us together, that one would be wondering if the girl was my wife. It made life easier for us. I wasn’t ready for marriage then. I knew marriage was a different thing and I didn’t want to make mistakes. I ran away from girls then because they were just too ready for marriage while I wasn’t. They would tell me their father was ready and that we should get married but I just didn’t want because I wanted to be the man, I wanted to be the head of the home.
