Iyanya stated that Nigerians must learn to disregard “bad marriages” so that their perception of marriage is not tainted.
In the recent episode of the kingz corner podcast, Iyanya advised intending and married couples to keep their marriages off social media and to focus on nurturing a beautiful relationship.
He stated that marriage is a beautiful institution and advised against allowing the negativity of bad marriages displayed on social media to affect their perception of the institution.
Iyanya stressed the importance of privacy in marriage, citing that airing marital issues on social media only invites unwanted opinions and interference, which could potentially damage the relationship further.
He emphasized the need for couples to address their issues in private .
The singer believes that showcasing love and happiness on social media is not an accurate representation of a successful marriage.
He urged couples to work on their relationships behind closed doors rather than focusing on external validation through social media.
He said:
“Marriage is beautiful. We have to learn to ignore bad marriages. And not allow those bad marriages to define our expectations of marriage. Don’t let a bad marriage make you think you can’t have a good marriage.
“I believe that if you find someone who loves you and is willing to sacrifice, it [marriage] is beautiful. I know people who are happily married, not that they don’t have challenges but I’ve watched them protect what they have. Some people who are happily married are not on Instagram; they don’t post valuable moments. They keep it, they cherish it.
“Social media is two words; social and media. Is your marriage social? If you want to be entertaining people with your marriage, if you guys now have small issues, you can’t even make up again”.

God bless you for that little ASSERTION..
In fact marriage is the best thing that can happen to any man or woman.
Even in any group or location where you have two different people from different backgrounds, tongue, training, etc being together, problem must arise .
So it is in marriage, so the crisis in marriages should not be a yardstick for others not to marry. You are different from others, so what is obtainable to others can’t be to you.
So why the fear and all these on social media from my generation.
Yes marriage is a beautiful thing,one of the sweetest things too,but that is if its a good woman,and its only God that can give you a good woman,and if you have a good wife,you are the richest and the happiest man on earth
I believe he grew up in a beautiful home, where marriage is important, not like some homes where their parents are separated. Marriage is beautiful I concur.
I give Iyanya a great clap for his good advice on marriage. I love his positive tips to avoid telling people about your bad marriage socal media. I want you married-cekebeity couples to hear his voice on social marriage. Social media is not beneficial if you show your bad marriage to them because it is not mature.
