Marry somebody who can joke with you - Nana Adwoa Awindor advises youth

Popular Ghanaian media personality and former host of 'Greetings from Abroad,' Nanahemaa Nana Adwoa Awindor, has offered valuable advice to young people on choosing a life partner.

Speaking during the 2024 Youth Week celebrations at the Assemblies of God Cedar Mountain Chapel in Accra, she advised the youth to choose partners who can joke with them in their marriage.

"I would advise the young ones to marry somebody who can be your friend. Someone who would like to laugh with you, smile with you, cry with you, or joke with you. Very importantly, joke with you!" she emphasized. 

She highlighted the importance of humour in relationships, noting that making jokes out of serious issues can help lessen tension in the marriage.

"In Ghana, one thing that has helped us is that we joke about everything, including serious issues. And because we joke about these things, we soften the tension. That should be part of our lives as a family, as a couple," she added.

Awindor advised young people to look for partners who can accommodate and support them in their marriage.

“You should look out for somebody who can accommodate you, who is ready to come halfway to meet your needs, to meet your excitement, and who is ready to support you as you grow,” she said.
