How did you meet your wife?

I met Hannah when I went for ministration in a church as a guest artiste. We attended different churches but we met and exchanged contacts. For a year or two, we began to talk but we were just friends.

Was it love at first sight?

No, our love developed gradually. I asked her out when we fell in love. I proposed to her and she accepted and we started planning our wedding.

What was the most memorable part of your wedding day?

Ours wasn’t a big wedding but the part that was most memorable for me was when we exchanged our vows. She told me the most memorable part for her was when she walked into the church and down the aisle.

Was finance an important factor before you tied the knot?

I did not see financial status as a barrier because two are better than one. We both have jobs and we agreed that as we grow, things will work out better.

How do you make time for your family?

As someone who is into photography, one of the challenges of our work is that it’s time-consuming. But before we married, we already ironed out this issue about my busy schedule and she was fine with it. So, I make time for my family during most weekends when I am free.

What are the lessons marriage has taught you?

Marriage has taught me how to be focused and responsible. It has helped me to be more patient and loving. It has taught me how to be more selfless and forgiving too.

What advice would you give to youths planning to marry?

Don’t get married because of public pressure or what people are saying. Don’t rush into marriage. Men should not marry someone who is not employed and I will advise that you marry the person who has the same purpose and life goals as you.
