Nollywood actor Uzor Arukwe has advised single women to prioritize personal growth before seeking wealthy life partners. His counsel emphasizes building independent lives and developing self-worth.
This guidance references Arukwe’s popular film role as “Odogwu,” a character many Nigerian women admire as ideal partner material. The actor clarified that in the movie storyline, the female lead Chioma (played by Bambam) had already established herself as a hardworking, valuable woman before the billionaire character supported her.
Self-Worth Precedes Partnership
Arukwe noted that Odogwu never questioned Chioma’s contributions because her industrious nature was evident. This illustrates how personal development naturally attracts quality partners.
The actor advises women to build intrinsic value through self-improvement. He suggests this foundation attracts men who appreciate strength of character. In his words:
“Odogwu saw Chioma as valuable before supporting her. Her industrious nature spoke for itself. Build your own value first. Your ideal partner will find you when you’ve established your worth.”
Arukwe concluded that self-development creates a solid foundation for relationships. When women become their best selves, compatible partners naturally align with their energy and values.
