linda-ikeji-5

Popular for bringing news blogging to a completely new frontier, Linda Ikeji has indeed come a long way. With 10 years experience in the business, she is definitely nobody’s fall gal.

The former model recently opened up to TS Weekend on her career, love life and what she wants from her man.

Why do you always write negative stories about celebrities that are not your friends?
Look, I have never written any negative story about anyone except ‘him’. I don’t want to mention any name, because I don’t want any distractions. More so, they are all my friends and I don’t have any bad belle towards anyone, I am only doing what I know how to do best.

Do you think the threat was too much from ‘him’ (Wizkid)?
I am never moved by any threat, and nobody can threaten me. I am not doing an illegal job, I publish what I heard or saw.

Don’t you think your mansion is too big for you especially now that you are single?
Hmmmmm, I am 36 and I have been struggling for 10 years. I believe I deserved it. Look, I don’t belittle myself. I believe that what is worth doing at all is worth doing well. I have the money to buy the mansion, so why won’t I do that even if I am not married yet. Don’t you think that anything can happen anytime? I am not praying for death now but someone needs to enjoy life for the fact that we still breathe. Buying half a billion naira mansion is my choice, and I am not regretting it.

Can you tell us about your plans for marriage and what you are looking for in a man?
Yes now, I am ready to settle down. Truly, when I was still struggling, I didn’t think of getting married. I was so ambitious and focused on my career. I was so passionate about my dreams. But now, I am getting there gradually. Recently, I sat down and thought of everything I am expecting in a man. My expectation was so high but now I have reduced it to just three.

What are the three things you are looking for in a man?
Haaa… why will I tell you that? Okay fine, my man must be rich because I can’t marry a poor guy. Secondly, I need a man that will fully support me, a man that will always drive me, a man that will motivate and push me higher. And thirdly, I want a man that is caring and sexy, most importantly, a man that is good on bed.

If you get married, are you moving into your husband’s house or he is moving into your mansion?
Of course yes, I will move down to my husband’s house and leave my parents there till when God says it’s time for them to come home. There is nothing wrong in that.

  39. Some of the comments I’ve read so far are so unsavory. It seems those with these unkind words have personal scores to settle with Linda.

    Just like most of you want a God-fearing man, tall, pink lipped etc man for marriage, Miss Ikeji has the right to state hers. It’s no sin, is it?

  51. You are still dreaming and when you are done with the dream you face the reality.Be wise don’t allow your fantasy to override the factual,remember that age is no longer on your side,a word they say is enough for the wise

  66. I don’t know y stupid people always get angry wen some1 says wat dey want in life!!!!!!… Plz wats ur business!!!!!! If u like marry danfo driver!!!

Please most times u dnt get wat u wish for, get a man dat loves you and help him archieve all dis ur standards Before you will still be the one to prepare salad and do chief bride’s maid for ur younger sister’s weddinq..

  73. There are many books in the bookshop but people go for few and important ones.therefore you are not vital and you will remaind in the shop with the saler that is ur parents.

  78. LET’S REASON LIKE ADULTS … U don’t expect a big lady like Linda to pick some niqqa in d Street n nature up since she’s gat money…d guy go just come chop free money… Den what???.. Go away??
    Ask toyin lawani what happened to her
    As for d guy’s sexual performance…. If u agege bread no chop d dier d find cake
    Mtcheww… Good in bed ke… Na u d share energy??? If u need Dt one den go pick Street hoods come Marry na

  80. That’s her wish just as everyone has made wishes too in d past of dream man/woman.But the big question is,do you deserve it? What is good for the goose is also good for the gander. Will this man find u as rich,sexy and good in bed too?

  87. Most women’s eyes don’t open quick , when they have suitors coming for them, they get selective. Writing list of what a man should have to be their man.
    At less than 30 years to 30 years, they say he must be this or that. At that point, they end up using their husband to do boyfriend. Not knowing that a woman is like a flower, whose glow fades away as the year goes by.

  103. If she like marry @ d age of 50 it wat she wants, & she has her reason for it…. She’s definitely not hungry…. Must of u get married @d age of 18 not really bcs of love but hungry, looking for who you carry responsibility!!!!!!!!…. A man who will marry her is sure blessed coz she not a liability, dependent,…. She able to make tinz happen, & dats wat makes a home successful…. Not all responsibility on 1 man!!!!!!!!! She can nevr be anybody kitchen equipment!!!!!

  133. Una wey de curse her now, how una take no say na she really talk am? Hmmmm… I bin just de waka pass shaaa… curse on… but I sure say d curse no go comot money wey de her acct or make her to go hug transformer …. singing my lullaby n wakaring de go….

  137. Hello haters,she listed the criteria she wants in her future husband to be and here you are killing yourself….so pathetic,deplorable,despicable,shameful and to round it up pitiful.find something to do with your precious time and stop hating,moreover l don’t see marriage as an achievement and age shouldn’t be a barrier for one’s happiness…my thoughts though.

  139. you will not calm down now and marry jejely oo
    later you go say nah your step mother bewitch you
    and
    your aging dangerously, your around your 40s and
    still making lists of what your future man shud b my
    dear your heading towards d relegation zone , very soon you will be negotiating a deal with menopause and next thing you go they fly from one crusade to another with a big empty mansion

  156. @lynda ikeji…go find ur self the normal nice ibo boy .who is into buisness.and lives an avrage life…forget all those too much packageing lekki boys…who wud were a suit and put on multiple coloured socks..both of u wud go hungry with his red lips..

  164. Nah now you talk wetin worry you. Please go ahead and test all the rich sexy men in Nigeria to find the best in bed . If you no see then try average sexy men , by the time you test finish you go don sleep with the men way Dey naija finish ….rubbish

  176. she just said what she wants. d kind of man she needs in life.and dat is what God can do for her. because God says decree u a word and it shall come to pass.and u what is ur choice in marriage not condemning hers. I wonder.

  210. Hahahahahaha is bcos she’s a public figure that’s why we are saying all dis as 99% of girls dis days are going after all dis qualities so make una wey b ladies stop to dey yab her cos na so all of una b

  235. Rich?? My sister go n pray very hard o. Cos wen u eventually finds dz qualities n he treats u like trash or start beating u blue black, wil u say God didn’t ansa ur prayer? D best bet is to seek God in big decisions like dz n everytin oda tin wil b added, not social media stuff everynow n den. Ur relnship should b private but not secret

  239. I think I understand the “he must be rich” part…she doesn’t wanna be in control, she wants her man to be in control which is right and men tend to get jealous and abusive when they don’t have or have less wealth and fame than their women.so it is only right that a man should have the upper hand in the house when it comes to wealth.how call y’all possibly call a Lady who is a multimillionaire a gold digger??? Nawa o.lol

  255. Before you guys start ranting of on on a post, you should check it’s authenticity.
    Any smart person would know she didn’t say this nonsense, she’s too mature and too smart to say something that dumb and publicly unacceptable.
    This struggling bloggers would do anything for traffic, including lie. They know this lady has been under fire a lot lately, over what she said and didn’t say. They know all they need is something this dumb or ridiculous and people would go all judgemental on her.
    People should try and use their brains sometimes and stop allowing others use it to make money.

  262. That’s her wish just like every other persons make a wish. For me, love & respect is wat matters alot in marriage. Money is like water we need but too much of it will drown u. It is good to be content wit the blessings that GOD has bless u, little be it or much bc contentment is godliness. Hebrew 13:5, says, for GOD has promise neva to leave thee nor forsake thee. 1st Timothy 6:6, says, but godliness wit contentment is great gain.

  274. stupid girl let me tell u a story , once opun a time hillary clinton sow her husband in school bill cliton and she said to him come to me and I will make a president out of u and 30 years after she made him a president. but look at ur self u re talking about sex in front of newspeper insted of talking about dream and future. for ur mind u hv arived abi gran maa.

  276. Muumu go and beg a man to marry you, before it will be too late for you. As I dey see you so you go reach meainopause early ooo. So the sooner the better, before water pass Garry. Thanks. But I……………..

  292. I have 1000,000 # in my account -rich ✔
    I have 20 packs and a body to kill for ✔
    And Abraham knew Sarah ✔
    I am the chosen one
    The over her throne
    Wait for me I am coming

  311. What I really love about her words is when she said that her expection is too high but now, she has reduce and i don’t know if i am the only one that know her reason of reducing her expection from higher to lower is due to her age, age is no longer on her side and i believe that if she didn’t get the man that’s rich, good in bed, sexy and will drive her in the next two or three years, she will still reduce her expection again. And by then, what she will be looking for is any man that she can answer his name(Mrs). She wouldn’t be thinking about the background of the man, poor or very poor. What she will need in her life at that age will be any man.

  325. Rich, sexy,good in bed.only???wat about love and affection? wat about faithfulness?..not tomorrow now u will still come here crying like a cat that he cheated on u
