– Risk Of Divorce Among Young Couples – Bolaji Idowu Speaks
Nigerian pastor Bolaji Idowu has sparked conversations about early marriage after reportedly addressing the potential challenges young couples may face when they marry before the age of 23.
The cleric’s comments focus on the importance of maturity and readiness when making the decision to get married, particularly at a young age.
Marriage often comes with responsibilities that require emotional maturity, effective communication, patience and the ability to navigate disagreements.

For couples who marry early, adjusting to these responsibilities while still discovering themselves may present additional challenges.
The discussion also raises questions about whether age alone determines a couple’s readiness for marriage or whether other factors, including financial stability, shared values and emotional preparedness, play a more significant role.
Although the headline points to a potentially higher risk of divorce among couples who marry before 23, such a claim requires supporting evidence and should not be interpreted as meaning that every young couple is destined to experience marital difficulties.
