Mr. Kola Olugbodi, the Managing Director of Background Check International (BCI) stated that background check has underscored the importance of pre Marita background check as an essential tool to eliminate marriage collapse
Olugbodi who spoke at a webinar to commemorate the 18tj anniversary of the company advised young people to stop venturing into marriage without adequate verification and due diligence checks on their spouses.
Olugbodi says pre marital check is an investment in the future of potential couples. The issue of spouses with fraudulent and criminal background is on rise and pre-marital background check is a potent tool to identify such. Background check according to him provides information on character check, reputation check, credit report and others. Olugbodi advised young people ensure they conduct through investigation and due diligence in order to overcome the odds. According to him, “Background check can provide almost 80% but the real work is with the parties involved in marriage”. Though he asserted that background check is not a divine seal that marriage would work but it helps to raise red flags in marriage though some other issues may be hidden.
Olugbodi urged parents to discharge their roles and responsibilities in order to curtail some of the disheartening occurrences in the marriage of young people.
