In her words, she said:
“I married an Okada man. He used to be an Okada man, but now he’s the CEO of King Flash Photography. He didn’t look like it when I married him. When I met my husband, even our wedding, he could not afford it. I was the one that said, ‘Don’t worry, God will do it.’ We did what we could do.”
She recalled that her husband had nothing at the time, but said she chose to support him despite his financial situation.
The woman revealed that their circumstances have changed significantly after 15 years of marriage, noting that they now own houses in Abuja and other locations.
“But today now, God has helped us. We have houses, not just house in Abuja, outside Abuja, everywhere. And God has been faithful in 15 years. One advice I’ll give to the younger generation is don’t marry a man because of what you’re seeing,” she added.
Her story has generated discussions online, with some praising her for standing by her husband during his difficult years, while others shared different opinions about choosing a life partner based on financial stability.
