It is a season to show and celebrate love like
never before. A season where people, families, friends and well-wishers spend
time together and hang out in some exciting places. Celebrities have different impression
about this celebration. While some see it as a very special day, very many
others have a different opinion.
Here are
some of their responses as sampled
I don’t
believe in lovers’ day — Halima Abubakar
What I am
going to say may sound strange to you, but that’s who I am. I really
don’t believe in Valentine day. I am not just excited about the
season. To me, a day should not be what you will make special for
somebody you are in love with. Love is not something you can celebrate in a day.
Halima’s
new look
To me,
every day of my life I live it for love. That’s my own side of the story. I
don’t have a special day for love. Everyday is Valentine day to me. Every day
all I need is for somebody to tell me, I love you, not only on the 14th of
February. That’s doesn’t mean I am against the celebration. I wish those
who like to celebrate it a happy celebration. There is no special
hang-out for me on that day. If there is any charity event coming up on that day,
I will attend it. Beside this, I am not interested.
It means
love to me — Chiege Alisigwe
To me,
valentine day is a time to show love in a special way.That’s why I
have decided to spend that day with my lovely husband. I will be having my
valentine with my husband. Though I will be opening all my bathroom and bedroom
accessories shop very soon, and I am hoping it does not clash with the
celebration. I will celebrate the valentine here in Nigeria.
I’ll be
working in the studio — Iyanya
For me, I
will be celebrating my own valentine day inside the studio, rehearsing for the
concert and my album lunch. The album, Iyanya vs Desire, will be lunched on the
11th of February in Abuja and on the 2nd of March in Lagos. We all know
Valentine day means sharing of love and cares to our loved ones. I
am busy now and certainly do not have the time to celebrate the
day.

It’s a
normal day to me — Kehinde Bankole
To me,
there is nothing special about Valentine Day. It is just a normal day like
every other day. If I will be at work on that day, I am at work.
And if I am at home, I will remain at home. Whatever I set out to do on that
day, I will definitely continue with it. I can’t stop my normal daily
activities because of Valentine Day celebration. I don’t have any special plan
or hang out on that day. There is no special preparation for me.
Whatever I find myself doing that day, I will continue with that nothing more.
People
might choose a day to mark it; I believe they should also use honourable things
to mark the celebration. The hype about it is too much, it is not even
necessary. They are making it sound as if there is a special thing for that
day. To me every day of my life is honourable and I make sure it I so. I don’t
think there is something special with 14th of February. Am outside the country
to relax myself and to know if there is any international opportunity I can get
not mainly for valentine. Will get back to work as soon as am by the ending of
this month.
It’s
confusing to me — Amaka Anioji
Well,
Valentine Day is confusing to me. But then, we always talk about love
during this period. So, I go with the flow, love all the way. Talking about
hangout on that day, for me, no. because, I will be working on that day. I have
a project I am working on and unfortunately, I am working on the
14th of February which is the valentine’s day. So, there will be no
hangout for me on that day.
I
celebrate my woman everyday — Lawrence Onuzulike
Valentine
Day doesn’t make much meaning to me because I celebrate my woman
everyday. I don’t wait for a particular day to celebrate her. Yes, I believe in
love. I still believe that love is the most beautiful thing on earth. I think
to some celebrities, Valentine Day is the day to show love while to some, it’s
the day to rake in big buck from various performances and appearances at
events.
On that
day, I’ll be on stage with Segun Arinze, Okey Bakassi, Benita Nzeribe hosting
Chico Ejiro’s Love Fiesta at the Oriental hotel, Lekki.
Val
day is worth celebrating — May D
It is a
very special day and it’s worth celebrating. To me, there is nothing special to
celebrate on that day, but I am going to celebrate on stage in
Port-Harcout on that day. Though, I am still working on my album which will be
released later in the year. For now, I only have a concert in PH for fun
seekers.
