Controversial human right activist, Reno Omokri, has admonished youths not to allow societal pressures push them into marriage because of age factor, even when it is obvious they are ill-prepared.

The self-acclaimed ‘Buhari tormentor’ stated that financial readiness should be the main priority when it comes to starting a family, not pressure from friends who already have a family.

The former Special Assistant to President Goodluck Jonathan took to his Twitter page where he wrote;

“If you let ‘at your age, you have not married and had kids’ push you to marry and have children, you will also hear ‘at your age you are coming to beg for money to look after your wife and kids’ from the same people. Be wise. Live life at your pace,” he wrote in a tweet.
