Tanzanian singer Ben Pol is glad that he broke up with his Kenyan ex-wife Anerlisa Muigai.
Ben Pol opened up about his joy for being single while speaking during an interview with Millard Ayo.
“Being single is being lucky, you shouldn’t play about it. Ni Bahati ya mtende kuwa single. Watu wengi wanatafuta bahati ya kuwa single. Ni bahati adhimu. Kwa hivyo, ukiipata hio bahati, usiipoteze, usiichezee, usiifuje, usiitumie vibaya,” Ben Pol said.
He added that being single is a good opportunity as one gets to do whatever they please however they want.
“If you can be your true self in a relationship that’s okay. Being in a relationship while being able to do your hobbies, your talent, being independent is like a certain kind of singleness while in a relationship.”
In January, the singer revealed that he didn’t enjoy his marriage to Anerlisa.
“To be honest, I didn’t enjoy marriage, I didn’t experience the best like other people do. For us, it was all about photos and posting on social media.”
