How did you meet your wife?
I met my wife, Comfort, through a pastor friend who introduced us. Our relationship blossomed from there.
Was it love at first sight?
No, it wasn’t. My feelings for her grew stronger as we got closer.
What qualities endeared her to you?
First, she is a born-again Christian. I observed her humility, loving nature, and her supportive attitude towards her parents and siblings. Naturally, I knew she would extend the same care to me and my family. Also, she shares the same birthday as my mum, which felt special.
What was her response when you proposed?
She said, “Yes.” She already knew what she wanted, and we were both mature and ready for the journey of marriage.
What was the most memorable event at your wedding?
The moment we were pronounced husband and wife, my joy knew no bounds.
What lessons has marriage taught you?
Marriage has taught me the importance of forgiveness. Anyone unwilling to forgive and move on shouldn’t consider marriage. It has also emphasised the value of tolerance and the need to pray about everything.
With your busy schedule as an event planner and filmmaker, how do you unwind with your family?
Sometimes, we unwind outdoors by going out to have fun. Other times, we enjoy quality time indoors, depending on our schedules.
What advice would you give young people planning to marry?
Marry for love, first and foremost. Be prepared to take responsibility, and don’t ignore red flags in your relationship. I also advise against planning weddings on debt or loans. Always live within your means. Your wedding doesn’t determine your marriage’s happiness or success—it’s only the beginning of a journey.
