Nigerian comedian, actress, and media personality Anita Asuoha popularly known as Real Warri Pikin is renewing her vows to her husband after 10 years of marriage this June.
Real Warri Pikin and her husband, Ikechukwu Asuoha, during a new interview with The Punch, opened up on why they took the decision.
Starting with how she got her alias, Real Warri Pikin said:
“I used to make videos and send them to a group chat I had with some of my friends and colleagues when I used to work at the National Youth Service Corps. I would make them critique the videos and they usually did. One day, I told them I wanted to get a name and one of them, Nene, said “Real Warri Pikin,” and I said that is the name and since then, it stuck. Also, because I love to identify with where I am from, it made a lot of sense to me.”
Explaining the decision to renew her marital vows with her husband, Real Warri Pikin who has been sharing pre-wedding photos said:
“Yes, I am getting married again and it is my dream wedding. When we got married 10 years ago, it was a low-budget wedding and it was not what we dreamed our wedding would be like. We told ourselves that if God blesses us in 10 years to come, we will have our dream wedding. God has blessed us, we are doing well, so come June, I will be getting married again to my husband.”
On the secret to her peaceful marriage, she said:
“When we have two people who forgive, who see themselves as partners and support each other, and the man can make submission ready for the woman, and the ego man in turn is ready, I respect the man.
