The end of my marriage is one of my biggest failures in life- Prof. Elsie Effah Kaufmann

Professor Elsie Effah Kaufmann, National Science and Maths Quiz (NSMQ) mistress, has stated that the breakup of her marriage is one of her biggest failures in life.

Speaking in an interview on Starr FM on November 2, 2023, Prof. Kaufmann shared that she went into marriage with the “till death do us apart” mindset, however, in reality, that was not going to be the case.

“When you get married, you’re expected to stay in it for life, right? So, I consider the breakup of a marriage one of my biggest failures in life because I went in there for life and life happened,” she said.

Prof. Kauffman, who also serves as the Dean of the School of Engineering Sciences for the University of Ghana shared some advice to young women preparing for marriage.

“First of all, you need to make wise choices and understand what you are getting into before you even get there and so know that human beings are not static.

“So, you don’t get married based on what you see at that time, note that you are going to be growing, the person may or may not grow so find somebody you can grow with,” she advised.
