Popular singer Sola Allyson has opened up about the challenges she faces in her marriage, noting that the idealised picture of marriage presented by older generations did not reflect her reality.

Allyson, who spoke in an interview with Oyinmomo TV posted on YouTube on Friday, explained that she did not experience the “bliss” that married couples often described.

“I have married a husband, but we are not living together. I am in my house and he is in his. That is what we are talking about when we say love. We used to lie before, and the ones above us didn’t let us know that marriage is hard. They made it seem like as long as you love each other, you’ll live happily ever after; and that was not my experience,” she said.

Allyson also reflected on how growing up in a dysfunctional home shaped her as an individual. “To my parents, I was like bait. They never spoke directly but sent me back and forth with insults disguised as errands. They used me against each other, and it scared me,” she revealed.

On feminism, she offered her perspective, “Feminism is not saying that men are bad. It’s about giving women the same choices that men have. Let everyone choose what they want to do, and then we guide them.”

Though widely perceived as a gospel artiste, Allyson said she had never identified herself as one. “I have never called myself a gospel artiste. My name is Sola Allyson, and I am a singer,” she stated.
