Yemi Fawaz? Remember her? She is an icon of modeling in Nigeria and West Africa. She pioneered professional
Back after nineteen years to give back to society, the ever beautiful Fawaz told Sunday Sun about her new goals, why she left the country, life in the US, her ordination as deaconess and lots more. She also shed light on the kind of man she wants and insists that she cannot marry a poor man or one who is she richer than.

After 19 years in New York, why are you back in Nigeria?
I love my country, no matter what is happening. Even though my heart bleeds because of traffic jams despite the good legacies of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and his predecessor Babatunde Fashola, fuel scarcity also saddens my heart. People have been suffering for years, though we enjoyed a little bit after independence. It’s sad. I came back thinking I could contribute my own little quota, especially to the lives of our budding youths.
You still look so beautiful, what’s the secret?
Thank you so much. God is wonderful. I guess it’s the Lord that is renewing my youth, there is no secret. The secret is just God. Anybody who sees me will not know that I suffered from enlarged heart for years but here I am still looking good . I give God the glory.
You still remain Yemi Fawaz, you didn’t marry a white man.Why not?
There was a rumour that I was married to a white billionaire, but I won’t marry out of Christ. If I don’t meet a born again Christian, I don’t think I will marry. Don’t forget that age doesn’t really count before God, before God there is no age. The bible says a thousand years before God is like a year. That means God doesn’t work with age. Sarah had a baby at 70+ and at that time Sarah had reached menopause but God gave her a baby.
There is nothing God cannot do if God really says I’m going to be married. If I’m going to be married, the man must be a free-hearted man like me, who loves people, who is ready to use his money to help people. I give God all the glory that I have never been married and I have never been divorced. But now, I’m married to Jesus. If the man comes, if he’s a good-hearted man, he must be rich too. At age 61 I can’t marry a poor man and I’m not a gold digger. I’ll tell him sweetheart, can I have $5,000 and then he starts to ruffle through his pockets saying “No, I can afford that money”.
A man can’t live off me. For me to marry a man and he’s living off me? No way. I’m not one of those women. The man will marry me. Not me to marry the man. But women of today they marry the man. That’s why women are not respected any longer. I won’t marry a man. The man will marry me, you will marry me with your money and with your love.
There is no poor man who will like to waste his hard earned money in marrying you.
Who wan marry her sef even a poor man wont marry her. Na only giggol she go dey meet. ‘Yeye dey smell’
Can pple ever dish out constructive arguments without resorting to insults??? Must u insult her? U can hate her ideology which I even don’t like be cos I think she’s setting a confusing standard for youths she claimed she wants to mentor…… but u can pass ur msg mature lyca without abuses
Na by force to marry? Who go marry this ugly woman self?
You go married firewood stupid
don’t worry my grandpa his still alive he has a coco farm his one of the biggest man in my state I can give u his fone number so u can. contact him…. mugu like u no go marry mk u born
If in that case she don’t need the media to corrupt the mind of the young woman out there we are still praying for there soul to be changed and someone from hell come back they are not submissive to a man but they only want son or daughter whom she as successful achieved so getting married is nothing aunt Yemi
At 61, you are supposed to be a grandmother for crying out loud, you have lost track of time, , the glory of a woman, beautiful or ugly is her husband, you don’t know what you have missed, no amount of money, fame and beauty can replace the joy of motherhood and a darling wife,
The article doesn’t just mention marriage alone .she has the intention to contribute to the society that was why she came back at the first place now you men placing insult if she happens to be a European lady most of you would kill your way through,now you guys are forming insults because she’s black forgetting that there are men who would wish her as their choice.
See dis woman still dey talk rubbish @61,no poor man will marry u@ dis ur age.yeye woman
Anyone u eventually settles wt shd knw dat is doing so 4 companion sake cos u re menopausic already.Adoptn will serve u well
Since did Nigerians turn Caucasians? bleaching yourself in the name of beauty.

Still bragging after injury and extra time on menopause.. Which poor man even ready to marry a granny as a wife.
Bob Williams pls don’t kill me with laughter! You are really very funny, but i think she just don’t want to buy a man with her money.
No body is riche in this world, only one man and his name is Jesus
u waste ur life. u no dey see
It’s not a focre for u to marry a poor man,It was always so since the day and uptil na,The rich are getting marry to the rich and the poor are getting marry to the poor,But look at it today how many rich people marriage has last forever compare to the poor,And as for 61years old you are not married yet,Then just turn to a Rev Mother,That should be better…U just want to spoil the mine of the young shall grow that is coming up,But you have failure and secondly if you think richest is all about marriage then wait untill u will meet for that rich man ok,Doesn’t come on dis sites to talk foolish things again….I am very sorry for the mother dat gave birth to u,Answer my question was ur mum and dad a rich people before dey marry and gave birth to u,Why u didn’t want them to see their grandchildren na,U are too wicker …Only God can saves you. Stop the idiot b4 u will do more damage to d ones u have done already,Why telling her she’s beautiful sef? Maybe all those flattering made her a spoilt brat. What’s beautiful in her sef? Whoever know her should tell this old witch to go bury her head in shame and stop talking rubbish to the press. #nonsense

After bleaching her life for 61 years… Is a shame…
Bt who fit marry this old cargo self?? Well, person wey no get grand ma fit contact her that s I’d that person s desperate to ‘ve a grand ma
Speechless on how beauty can destroy. But u should know that Beauty fades, and money isn’t a factor for a happy life. Pls get married to that poor man, if any and start a life. U can adopt children. U need more of God’s word to change ur thinking. Poverty is in the mind, u sound poor mentally. Enrich urself with God’s word
And you’ll die a Prostitute
Chai!! What a wasted life without children
No wonder she can’t marry. Ashawo.

It’s because she got poor mind .
No wonder why you’re not a wife at 61
What is beauty?
Aunty gbegbe, after after all the abortions and wasting your youth..And you still dey find rich man, Ok nah
That is why you unmarried after 61years. you are only fit for servcing.
Is she as rich as her child’s father? If not, then she’s deceiving herself.
you are getting married in the grave.
you will die being single soon
That is ur choice, and that is why u are still single @ 61
No.wonder u are an unmarried grand mother.
And she’s even giving herself the blind assurance of still getting married even when she’s at menopause stage and fast approaching her grave.This is what greediness and discontent result.I think youths should learn a lesson from this one.As for the old woman,she should keep swimming and indulging in dream of no reality.
that is your own cup of tea
Cynthia PeterAkpulu U0001f602U0001f602U0001f602

Nigerians with kids!!!!!!!! she is fine and she is right! why suffer having kids you can’t take care of???? yes she is coming to teach you and she will struggle for you to understand!! If you see how Nigerians men pregnant ladies and live them like snakes, then u would get to understand them. Nigerian men In Europe uhhh!!reputation abt mistreating ladies uhh!! Dear Getting Married is nice if you are happy! but if not then it better to stay alone!! it is no obligation to have a child!!!.
Rich husband!! All Nigerian men are mentally poor!! with zero respect to themselves and Ladies so I understand why you can’t find a man! only dogs around
I heard this many times by different people. The question here is that. Who create poor and rich? Were rich people born with the wealth the think they have? Were they going with it to their graves? Reasonable answer pls!
Well guess what ?some poor men don’t want a old cargo like you anyway,they’re poor not stupidU0001f603U0001f603U0001f603
That’s why you’re still not married

Yes oooo AMEN… U0001f451U0001f451U0001f451U0001f451SO HELP ME GOD
I disagree with her
Marry a man who loves you then work together and make yourselves rich
But at her age there isn’t much time
Pls, wait till you clock 80yrs then you will find the rich man
At what time?
I guess she was asked a question in an interview and she gave an answer which is her own opinion and I don’t think she was doing that to corrupt the youths. ..are our youths not corrupt enough from what the western mentality and social media is teaching them today. ? so please you guys should leave this poor woman alone.
You are lucky, there is one I know who is young and rich HIS name is JESUS.
Fools she goat
All these insults… the old lady says she doesn’t want to marry a poor man…
I haven’t seen any woman who dreams of marrying a poor man.
So what’s the biggie?
OK now waith for rich man
No rseponsible man would Want to marry a Woman with so much Beauty with no source. Who knows…if you see mami water o…runner runner Runaway! Ahahah! That was your view, this is my own view.
She will remain Husband less till thy Kingdom come if she is waiting for rich man

You are already over the hill, stop talking of marriage because nobody said they were going to marry a 61 year old woman
