Any woman that can’t cope with my fans can’t date me – Iyanya

Excerpts from popular singer Iyanya's chat with  Tofarati Ige of Punch where he said so many times, girls have approached him while he was with his girlfriend, and they would tell her to take pictures of he and them together.

According to Iyanya, any woman who wants to date him and can't deal with these scenarios, can’t date him.

  •  Why did you leave MMMG because many thought you’re a co-owner?

Yes, I was a co-owner. But I left MMMG because my contract was over and there were no plans to renew. We knew that after that contract, everyone would go their different ways.

  • So you mean you didn’t quarrel with Ubi Franklin?

Why should we quarrel? Everybody has issues and that includes Ubi and me. But we didn’t break up because we fell apart. It was just time for me to leave.

  • What actually went wrong in your relationship with Yvonne Nelson?

It was just one of those relationships that didn’t work because it couldn’t work. It’s not like she’s a bad person and I’m not a bad person either. However, I’m happy that we still have a nice relationship and we keep in touch.

  • Do you think it’s okay for entertainers to date?

If you’re ready for all that madness, then you can go ahead. If you’re dating a famous person, don’t expect the relationship to be like the one where the person isn’t in the public eye.

Besides, entertainers don’t have regular schedules and we don’t have a lot of free time at our disposal. You must also be ready to see such people hugging, kissing strangers and if the person is an actress, they would even have to fake lovemaking because it’s part of their job.

So many times, girls have approached me while I was with my girlfriend, and they would tell her to take pictures of us together. Anybody that isn’t comfortable doing that can’t date me. Before you met me, my fans were there. And that’s why I’m not in a relationship today because it’s difficult for most people to understand.

  • What do you like in a woman?

I don’t know. If a woman makes me happy and she looks good, then I’m okay.
