Tonto Dikeh Respond To Critics Of Her Political Movement, That She Can’t Manage Her Marriage So She Can’t Rule

Nigerian actress and politician, Tonto Dikeh, the African Democratic Congress deputy governorship candidate for Rivers State has sent a message to critics of her political movement.

Tonto Dikeh who has been criticized by many for wanting to become a deputy governor yet not being able to manage her first marriage and a second romantic relationship, responded to the critics in a conversation with media personality Chude Jideonwo.

According to the former actress and single mum, Tonto DIkeh, matters regarding her bedroom affairs have no relevance to her quest for a political career.

“You’re not ready for change, because you cannot be looking at my bedroom life, and tell me that I cannot change you. That’s irrelevant. If we’re having a marriage conversation, that can come up, but if we’re talking about leadership, that shouldn’t even be a yardstick.” Tonto Dikeh said.

Tonto Dikeh further said “I don’t want to say too much, but the truth is, we all know what we want. What if a husband has nothing for me? What if that’s not where I want life to carry me?.

There’s so many things that people should look at. What if I have said to myself, I do not ever want? I’m just saying, you know? What if a person has said to herself, I don’t want to ever get married, but I want to rule? So, I can’t do that because there’s no man beside me? We should be wise.

I’m not scared of anything; I own my life with my chest. I am not ashamed of what I’ve been through, what I’m going to go through, or what I came out of. No!”

In the interview, Tonto Dikeh also talked about how she failed in music, how she easily falls in love with others, relationships gone bad, losing her step mum, her fight with God, and her bonafides for politics.

Responding to what will she do if she fails in the election, Tonto DIkeh disclosed that she will still be active underneath to push for the change she desires, be it as a minister, senator, or PA.
