A Nigerian man, Nnamdi Azodo, has taken to social media to mark his sixth wedding anniversary while recounting how his wife turned down his advances for almost a decade.
He said the first time he asked her out, she rejected him, and he continued putting pressure for eight good years until she finally agreed to date him.
Nnamdi and his wife eventually got married and have been together for six years. He shared photos via Twitter on December 16 to celebrate their anniversary.
He wrote; “According to Twitter standards, you shouldn’t ask a lady out for more than a month. Well, I asked @ajebojesus_ out for 8 years before she said “yes”. When she did, I said let’s go to the alter
Today is our 6th wedding anniversary. Moral of the story: happiness has no template. We don’t have any “6 Advice for 6 Years” to share. Just pray for us. Thank you!”

Reacting, @asemota; Congratulations bro!!! I proposed and it took one year before I got a yes. Don’t mind people here.
@SimplyAzodo; Thanks boss! I’ve stopped caring about the opinion of random strangers a long time ago

Meanwhile, in other news…
A man identified as Victor Olalere, has dragged his wife before Grade A Customary Court, Oja Oba, Mapo, Ibadan, Oyo State, over alleged deceit.
He also accused his partner, Adeola Olalere of irresponsibility, violence and attempt to take over his property.
The complainant told the court how she claimed that he impregnated her, but noted that he became worried after watching her for months, but never saw her tummy protrude.
In his words; I got married to Adeola in 2017 after she lied to me that she was carrying my baby, but I did not pay any dowry on her.
I was already married before I met her, but my first wife did not have any child for me. Adeola already had three children for three different men before she moved in with me.
I bought the house Adeola and I both lived in for three years, a year before we got married and it is solely owed by me. I discovered that my wife is decietful, irresponsible, troublesome, and violent after we got married.
My lord, Adeola lied that she was pregnant. I waited patiently to see her tummy grow, but it remained the same size for months. She insisted that she was pregnant and we sought for medical help to uncover the problem, but we did not have a breakthrough after spending through the nose.
We later abandoned orthodox medicine for spiritual intervention, but again we were left disappointed. We attended to this problem for more than a year without success. I felt her problem must have been as a result of stress and I stopped her from working.
