Nollywood actress Laide Bakare has revealed that she has strict personal rules when it comes to relationships, stressing that no man is allowed to visit her home unless they are married.

The actress made this known during a recent interview where she spoke about her views on dating, relationships, and maintaining boundaries. According to her, she believes in protecting her personal space and ensuring that any man in her life respects her values and principles.

Bakare explained that allowing a man to visit her home before marriage could send the wrong signal and potentially complicate a relationship. She noted that setting clear boundaries helps her avoid unnecessary emotional pressure and distractions.

The actress said she prefers to keep her relationships private and structured, adding that marriage remains the only condition under which a partner would be permitted to visit her residence.

She also used the opportunity to advise women to establish standards in their relationships and avoid compromising their values because of societal pressure or emotional attachment.

Bakare, who has remained a prominent figure in Nigeria’s film industry, said maintaining discipline in relationships is important for personal growth and self-respect. She added that every individual has the right to decide what works best for them in matters of love and dating.
