Veteran actor and former Commissioner for Culture and Tourism in Delta State, Richard Mofe-Damijo, popularly known as RMD, has sent a Valentine’s Day message to single and ‘bae-less ladies.’

In an apparent reaction to Actress Ubah’s claims that no woman is complete without marriage, the 56-year-old took to his Instagram account today and advised ladies not to be “pressured by the need to be loved and cared for”. He added that a lady is complete on her own.

He wrote,

It’s that day of the year again when many are pressured by the need to be loved and cared for. The day where the pressure to outshine the other is on and the really single, bae-less ones feel out of sorts. Well my darling, do not let anything or anyone make you feel inadequate and/or incomplete. Don’t look for anybody to complete you today or at any time. You are complete on your own. Nobody completes you. Nothing completes you.

Stop looking for that person or thing that completes you. You won’t find it. Find the One that made you and learn how to be with Him and be at peace, that way if the chocolates, cakes, roses and ice cream don’t come to you, you’ll gracefully enjoy the day nonetheless knowing that your happiness is in your own hands.
