Nigerian singer Chike-Ezekpeazu Osebuka, better known as Chike, has made it clear that marriage is not in his plans, describing the institution as a “stupid step” in his personal opinion.
In a candid conversation with media personality Chude Jideonwo, the Running crooner dismissed the idea of settling down, saying, “In my personal opinion, I think it’s a stupid step to get married. That’s my opinion.”
Chike, who gained national attention through the reality TV music shows Project Fame and The Voice Nigeria, explained that his stance is purely personal and not shaped by societal expectations.

The Enugu-born artiste also shared his thoughts on happiness, linking it strongly to financial stability. “I need a lot of money to be happy,” he remarked, clarifying that it is not about greed but about sustaining the lifestyle he desires.
Interestingly, Chike revealed that music was not his initial career choice. He only discovered his passion for singing after completing his university education.
Famed for hit tracks like Running (To You) featuring Simi, Roju, and Egwu, Chike has become a celebrated figure in Nigeria’s alternative and R&B music space, with his albums Boo of the Booless and The Brother’s Keeper receiving both local and international praise.
Addressing public perception, the singer admitted that some critics see him as arrogant, but he maintained that such opinions have no bearing on how he lives his life.
