“I’ll Marry in God’s Appointed Time” — Martha Ankomah on Single Life, Prayer and Patience

0

Ghanaian screen star Martha Ankomah has once again addressed her relationship status, telling fans she is single, not dating and trusting God’s timing for marriage — a stance she has repeated across several interviews over the past few years. In an interview first reported in 2020 she said she believed she would marry when it was “God’s time,” a message she has reiterated since.

The actress, well known for her film and television roles, has been open about her longing for family life while stressing faith and patience. In a televised interview late in 2024 Ankomah admitted she often thinks about having children and even joked about wishing she had “three kids” to take to Sunday school — but added that she is placing the matter in prayer and waiting on God’s answer. 

Ankomah’s position is consistent: she has publicly stated she is not actively dating and refuses to rush into a relationship she believes is not ordained for her. Speaking previously on Kingdom Plus FM and in other media appearances, she told interviewers she cannot — and will not — force a relationship and that she frequently prays about marriage, reminding God of her desire while trusting His timing. 

Fans and commentators often react strongly when celebrities discuss private life choices. For Ankomah, the conversation has been more about faith and calm resolve than headlines: she frames singlehood as a season, not a failure. “Delay doesn’t mean denial,” she has said, a refrain that underscores her broader message of patience and hope. 

While marriage and family remain personal priorities, Ankomah’s public life continues full tilt. Beyond matters of the heart, she has used her platform to highlight industry issues — most recently speaking out about colourism and pressures faced by darker-skinned actors — demonstrating that her public voice stretches across social as well as personal terrain.

What this means for fans is simple: Ankomah remains a figure many admire not only for her craft but for her candid, faith-forward approach to life’s milestones. Whether marriage comes soon or later, she has made clear her belief that when it does arrive it will be because it is right for her — and because it comes in God’s appointed time.

The setback was even more disheartening as members of his fan club travelled to the stadium to cheer him on, only to see him sit out the matches because of paperwork delays. Their frustration echoed the disappointment of many Ghanaians who were eager to watch the Bundesliga defender in national colours for the first time.

The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has assured fans that all necessary documents have already been submitted to FIFA and expressed confidence that clearance will be granted soon. Once approved, Derrick Arthur is expected to add strength, pace, and competition to the Black Stars’ left-back position.

For now, the Cologne-based defender must remain patient, but both supporters and technical handlers believe his debut is only a matter of time.

His son, 41-year-old David, had been found dead earlier this year on a relative’s sofa following a long battle with addiction. Despite years of struggle, his family revealed he had been making progress in recovery and had been staying clean from drugs at the time of his passing.

David’s sister, Chantelle, spoke about his journey, sharing that he had shown signs of turning his life around. “He had been doing well. He was staying clean and making progress with his recovery,” she said.

Tragically, David’s death occurred exactly ten years after the memorial service for his stillborn twin sons, compounding the family’s grief.

Now, the sudden passing of Norman during the funeral has left the family reeling from a double tragedy, mourning both father and son in the space of days.

Friends and community members have since expressed their condolences, describing the events as “unbearably heartbreaking.”

The young man, who had served diligently under his master for several years, was finally rewarded with the keys to his own fully stocked shop. His mentor, in line with the cherished “Igba Boi” tradition, ensured the apprentice’s journey into entrepreneurship began with a solid foundation. Witnesses at the handover ceremony described the moment as “emotional and inspiring,” with many praising the enduring culture that has empowered countless Igbo youths over generations.

The Igbo apprenticeship system—recognized globally as one of the most successful business mentorship models—emphasizes loyalty, trust, and eventual empowerment. Under this system, young men (Nwaboi) commit years of service to their masters, learning trade skills, discipline, and the principles of business management. At the end of the term, the master settles them with capital or a stocked shop, allowing them to start their own business independently.

Community leaders hailed the event as a reminder of the importance of tradition in fostering economic empowerment and social growth. “This system is not just about business; it’s about building people and ensuring no one is left behind,” one elder remarked.

Social media has since been flooded with congratulatory messages for the young entrepreneur, with many calling the gesture a powerful lesson in mentorship and selflessness.

This latest settlement in Port Harcourt stands as a glowing example of the Igbo philosophy: lifting others as you climb.
