IMG_20160515_224609Yemi Fawaz? Remember her? She is an icon of modeling in Nigeria and West Africa. She pioneered professional

mod­eling in Nigeria and took the job to the next level before she packed her bag and baggage and left for the United States with her 11 year old daughter.

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.

  11. In-fact this woman don’t have a single shame. When I think of it, I wonder is she was born of a woman and if so, is her good mother still alive to see what kind of maggot she gave birth to. To me any man or young man that married you, has married liability.

    That’s what you thought when you were younger and it’s sad that you still think that aged 61. Einstein’s definition of madness is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results … Enough said!

  16. We should learn to accept the opinions of others. ….If her childhood dreams has always been to married a rich man then let her hold on it even at age 90. Putting insults on her because of her opinion or the way she see her world is not the right thing to do. ….We all have to live our lives to please us not to make the world happy and displeased ourselves.

Look at you with all that powder on your face and bragging of not to marry a poor man,while sleeping with rich men that will never marry you and you here quoting the bible and Jesus .. I can see the idiocy of the life of people in New York has definitely rubbed on you .. Smh

    99% of those commenting here didn’t bother to read…and that’s just sad… Because if they did, everyone WILL commend her and INSULT the person who wrote the sensational yet misleading heading!!!

  30. Your comment tells much why you have remained single @ 61.A man who would approach you should have his head examined.Your age mates are now grand mothers and you are yet to be married.The closest you will get close to a man is with your driver if you have got one. You man eater!!
