Nigerian music star, Joseph Akinwale Akinfenwa-Donus, popularly known as Joeboy, has opened up on his plans for his future wedding, shocking fans.

The singer, while speaking during an interview with Madame Joyce, explained that he fancies early marriages, adding that getting married in his 20s and having teenage children in his 40s would be great.

Joeboy however revealed that he would keep his marriage a secret if he decides to tie the knot.

“I saw an interview of Timini. He’s like the ideal playboy; almost all the girls claim to love him, and he was like, he wished he got married early.

I was like, if you’re a playboy and you can say this, that means marrying early might actually be nice. That is not the only identifier for me. But marrying early to someone who you genuinely love is going to be cute. Being 40 and having a 16-year-old kid is cute. But marriage is not really about whenever it feels cool. If it just feels right to you and you love the person, do it. Personally, I would rather get married early. But if I get married right now, nobody is going to know. Maybe when I have like three kids, people will now find out that Joeboy has a whole family somewhere,” he said.
