Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh has revealed that walking away from her marriage was the best decision she ever made.
Dikeh highlighted the importance of prioritising her well-being and that of her child.
The actress shared this in an Instagram post while responding to a message from a single mother seeking advice on how to navigate the challenges of raising a child after divorce.
The woman, who described herself as “a nobody aiming to be somebody soon,” expressed feelings of inadequacy and asked how Dikeh coped after her ex-husband left.
In her reply, Dikeh clarified that it was her decision to leave the marriage for the sake of herself and her child, calling it the “best decision” she ever made.
She emphasised the importance of self-investment and personal growth, encouraging the woman to focus on her well-being and that of her child while seeking God’s guidance.
Dikeh’s response read: “Good morning. First and foremost, I was the one who chose to walk away from my marriage, not the other way around. I needed to escape a difficult situation, not just for my sake, but for my child as well. Best decision I ever made.
“Remember, you have the power to become the person you aspire to be, as long as you commit to your growth and invest in yourself. Prioritise the well-being of your children while seeking guidance and strength from God. Sometimes the end of the road is the beginning of your blessings, but please, if your marriage is worth it, fight for your home. Take care.”
She added, “Dear single mothers, I don’t have a manual for these things. I am neither a pro in this movement. My biggest teacher has been LOVE. I just let God do His thing, and His thing is enough for me. Draw strength from God and, most importantly, keep your family matters private.”
