In a heartfelt address at the wedding ceremony of Olorungbotemi Bright, Publisher of Voice Air Media (VAM), and Princess Oluwayemisi Ademiloye, Asiwaju Munirudeen Bola Oyebamiji (AMBO), governorship aspirant of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Osun State, shared timeless wisdom on nurturing a successful marriage.
Speaking at Ilomu-Ekiti, Ekiti State on Saturday, November 22, 2025, AMBO pinpointed impatience and misunderstanding as stumbling blocks that often lead to marital breakdowns, urging couples to prioritize the values that foster lasting love.
Represented at the event by ‘Prof.’ Hon. Waheed Adekunle, AMBO said the success of any marriage depends on deliberate effort and shared responsibility.
He outlined six core principles of a successful marriage couples must uphold:
1) Patience: Allowing love to grow, and weathering life’s storms together.
2. Respect: Honoring each other’s individuality, opinions, and contributions.
3. Understanding: Cultivating empathy, active listening, and compassion.
4. Partnership: Collaborating as equals, sharing joys and burdens.
5. Respecting Each Other’s Opinion: Valuing differences as strengths, not weaknesses.
6. Commitment: Standing united, through life’s triumphs and trials.
“Not every relationship leads to marriage, but every marriage that must survive requires patience, mutual understanding and a genuine partnership. Respect your wife’s opinion, work together as a team, and stay committed,” AMBO said.
Appreciating everyone present at the wedding, the couples said, “We sincerely appreciate everyone who joined us to celebrate this special day, and all our guests for their love, support, and presence”.
