Actor Zubby Michael has opened up about his decision to stay single during the early years of his acting career, saying it was a deliberate choice to protect his focus and growth.
In an interview with Broadway TV, the actor said he deliberately kept romantic relationships at bay while establishing himself in the film industry, particularly during his challenging period in Asaba.
He explained that getting emotionally involved at that time could have interfered with his drive and slowed his progress.
Zubby Michael clarified that his stance was not due to any negative view of women, whom he called beautiful, but was instead about timing and maintaining discipline.

As I dey put all my mind for film, if woman come now and we come get problem, I fit dey set I go dey think about am, e go dey affect me".
He added that relationships carry responsibilities that, if not well managed, can affect one’s productivity.
According to him, now that he has reached a point of stability, including owning a home, he feels more ready to embrace love.
He stressed that every phase of life has its appropriate time, and for him, the priority in his early years was building a solid foundation before pursuing romance.
"So as a young man, it’s not that women are b@d, they’re beautiful. But there’s time for everything. Conquer the first stage of your life. See, now I get my house. Now I can say, okay, let’s see how it goes. No be that time wey I dey Asaba dey work hard. I go come claim say I love you, you and who dey love that time? There’s time for everything.
