According to the source article, Nigerian singer Iyanya has spoken openly about his ongoing difficulty maintaining celibacy, saying the commitment has been inconsistent despite his efforts.

In a candid interview on the Afropolitan podcast, the 39-year-old artist explained that his resolve often weakens when he encounters women he finds attractive, leading to moments he later regrets. He described his experience as a cycle of commitment, relapse, and reflection.

Iyanya said his attempts at celibacy tend to fluctuate, noting that while he sometimes succeeds, certain situations challenge his resolve. He acknowledged that after breaking celibacy, he often finds himself wishing he had remained disciplined.

The singer also addressed speculation about his personal life, stating that marriage is not something he is considering at this stage. According to him, he does not feel mentally prepared for marriage and prefers to focus on personal healing.

Iyanya added that honesty has become central to how he approaches relationships. He said he now clearly communicates his emotional state to people he meets, explaining that he avoids making promises or giving false expectations.

He noted that being upfront about his readiness has helped him avoid misleading others, adding that maturity has changed how he handles romantic interactions compared to earlier in his career.
