Ghanaian songstress and human rights activist, Deborah Vanessa, has made it clear that she has no intentions of becoming a parent in the future.
Sister Derby, who recently celebrated her 39th birthday, disclosed that she takes care of many children but has no desire to have one of her own. This statement was prompted by a fan’s inquiry about whether she had children, considering her youthful appearance despite her age.
Earlier this year, Sister Derby, who has gone through several unsuccessful relationships, expressed her lack of enthusiasm for marriage. Her past relationships have been public knowledge, and she has stated that she doesn’t keep her romantic affairs private.
During an interview on Ameyaw TV, she affirmed her contentment with her current relationship and emphasized that she is not in a hurry to get married.
“I am not desperate for marriage at all. If I don’t get married or have children, I am still happy and fine with myself. I don’t feel like it is the end of the world because of it, I have always been independent.
“I’m not rushing for marriage. Will it bring me 5 million dollars?” she asked.
Derby also advised young women to be self-assured and not give in to social pressures to marry and end up in abusive marriages. She explained why she always flaunts her new boyfriend in public.
She said she does not see the point in hiding him if he is serious and makes her comfortable.
“I am the kind of person that likes to be free and not stressed. Hiding, pretending, and calculating are very stressful to me. But if I am comfortable and the person is showing signs of seriousness why should I be hiding? Why should I care about society? everybody goes through relationships and breakups.
“The truth is if you’re comfortable with someone and enjoy their company then you want to be around them all the time. My partner enjoys my company and so do I,” she stressed.
