NPP’s Ellen Ama Daaku: I’m better off not being married

Ellen Ama Daaku, a women and children’s rights advocate, has said she is better off not being married after having gone through different experiences in life.

The former women’s organiser aspirant of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), who is currently divorced, believes women should be cautious of who they choose as a lifetime partner.

Speaking on the topic “Do high achieving women struggle to find suitable partners” on the Asaase Breakfast Show on Friday (2 June), Daaku said she is currently in court with her husband “because he is irresponsible.”

“I think that they do because of my own personal experience,” Daaku said in reference to high achieving women and their struggles to find lifetime partners. “I’m divorced now, and I believe that I’m better off not being married.”

“As a woman, you have to always demand for what will make you comfortable, for what will make you thrive, and marriage is not the only way to get there.

“You do not have to be married, and if you decide to be married, it’s important that you look out for yourself, take your time before deciding who you want to partner with,” Daaku added.
