IK Ogbonna Reveals He Was Advised Not To Show Off His Girlfriend Sonia Morales

IK Ogbonna revealed in a chat with Encomium magazine that he was advised not to flaunt his girlfriend in public so as to boost his career. Read excerpts from the interview below.
We learnt you were advised not to show off your girlfriend, why?

A lot of people tell me that since I happen to be a fine boy and Nollywood’s bad boy, I should not let people know that I have a girlfriend because of the ladies. I believe that is total nonsense. As far as I am concerned, why should I live a fake life because I am in the public eye? If someone is my fan, he or she should respect me for who I am. I cannot be dating someone and deny the lady of her right to happiness because women like it when their man celebrate them. I am not flaunting my woman, instead I am living my life the way I should.

Knowing your status, do women still flock around you?

Even married men still have girls chasing them. As far as you have some money in your pocket, women will chase you. Times have changed now and people don’t care about your marital status anymore. They go for what they want at every cost. What really matters is if I am willing to fall for the advances or stay focused. I am a principled young man even though I may flirt sometimes. I know where I am going because I know where I am coming from. I am very honest with who I am dating now ad she is also honest with me.

What do you think makes a man?

What makes you a man is the ability to leave the single sweet life and become one with another person. If the mindset of some people is too low to accept certain things, it will not stop me from living my life.
