Nigerian singer, D’banj has shared his perspective on having children, adding that one does not need to have everything in the world before having them.
The singer was asked to confirm if getting married and having kids changes a person and gives a fresh perspective.
“I think it’s just general sometimes. It is important for us to know that we are actually a vessel for God to use. There’s nothing that shows that more than knowing that you’re responsible for people, it lets you know that it’s not only you.”

He also admired how this generation handles people who have children outside of marriage, emphasizing that his generation was harder.
He pointed out that, in his time, having a child out of wedlock could end one’s career, whereas today’s celebrities are celebrated for it.
“It’s one thing I admire about this generation. Our generation was so hard that if you had a child out of wedlock, your career could just end. Now sometimes I dey call Tuface like, ‘Guy why you no tell me that time?’
“It’s something different when you see them celebrating with their kids and they’re in their 30s and their kids are teenagers. I be like ‘Ah, Una no do me well o. That time I just dey there’.”

D’banj emphasized that having children borders on a person’s state of mind.
“Having kids goes beyond just people, it goes to your state of mind. It’s like ‘Are you mentally ready? Are you financially ready? You don’t have to have everything in the world but if you’re ready to embrace everything, it comes to you.”
