Popular Actress, Temitayo Odueke, popularly known as Sikiratu Sindodo has plainly stated that she is a wife material.

 In a recent interview with Punch newspaper, the single mother of one said that she will  make a good wife despite her once failed marriage.

“I know I will make a good wife. I cook well; I am not the outgoing type. If I am not working, I am at home. It is sad that when people see me outside, they have a different impression about me. “

Speaking further, she said “I don’t know why, maybe it is because I am an Actress. I am not like that, I pray five times a day. If I open the trunk of my car for you, my praying mat is there. I may not do that when I work all day but in the night I do so. People do not believe that I am close to God. When I’m into acting, it is different. “

Take a look at the table below. It’s a simple five-cell affair with the names of twenty-five recently deceased Nigerians drawn randomly from various walks of life, including ages at time of passing, countries where each death took place, the causes of death (where available), and the year of transition.
The names are presented in a simple alphabetical order, with no distinction between those who lived or had a home abroad, and those who traveled expressly to secure medical care. However, as far as I can tell, only two, possibly three, of the 25 people on my list belonged in the former category.
