Nigerian Actress, Halima Abubakar, says she is quitting acting.
This is contained in a statement by her management on Monday.
She thanked her fans for their love and prayers
The statement read “Halima Abubakar quit acting. We are so grateful for all the prayers. God bless you all but as of today, she will no longer act.
“It is her wish. We love you all. Thank you for your support.
“She is so downcast. She really did love acting. Thank you”
Halima Abubakar began acting in 2001 when she played a role in ‘Rejected.’ Her first lead role was in Gangster Paradise. She is also the CEO of a Modehouse Entertainment, a music label and entertainment management company.
In 2011, she won the Afro Hollywood Best Actress award.
In 2021, advised men to always seek permission for sex in marriages.
She said “There have been reports that some homes broke up because of sex but I am sorry to say this, some people are limited in their sexual expression because of religion. Some women just lie down there (during sex) because they are scared of expressing themselves. But, men can encourage their women to be more expressive, without using abusive languages.
“Also, if the woman is not in the mood, her wishes should be respected. There are other things, aside from sex, that a man should concern himself with. I consider it a turn off for a man to like sex too much. I feel some men are insatiable (sexually). Some people have said that when one is legally married, there is nothing like rape. But, I don’t agree with that.
“Any sex that is not consensual is rape. The woman could even get injured in the process. Would we still call that pleasure? One’s husband should not forcefully have sex with one. I am not saying a man should not have sex, but he should control his appetite for it so that it doesn’t lead to his destruction. I feel the wife can report this kind of case if she cannot talk to the husband, but should go to the family first. If he does not change, then she should take it to the authorities.”
