A 28-year-old man, a civil engineer hailing from Ilorin, has made an announcement in his quest to look for a wife, stating his intentions to tie the knot in 2024.

The young man, who wishes to remain anonymous, has outlined specific criteria for potential suitors who wish to be considered for this auspicious union.

The prospective groom, a Yoruba man with an AA genotype and a dark complexion, expressed his preference for a partner from Ilorin who is of average height, a Muslim by faith, and possesses an occupation.

He also extended the opportunity for candidates without an occupation, provided they have a viable business idea that he can support and invest in.

In his appeal to find a suitable match, the civil engineer emphasized the importance of beauty, considering it to be an essential factor in his decision-making process. Although he mentioned that being light-skinned would be an added advantage, it was not deemed as a strict requirement.

The announcement has gained significant attention on social media.

However, the civil engineer made an impassioned plea, urging any woman who had previously been involved with a “yahoo boy” (an individual involved in internet fraud) to refrain from applying.

The post reads;

“Ilorin ladies, over to you. “Please, don’t send a DM if you’ve dated a yahoo guy and MUST be ready for marriage come 2024.”
