Shade Okoya SPEAKS on how she met her husband

Speaking with Channels Television, the 47-year-old mother of four revealed that their initial meeting was work-related but Chief Okoya’s intentions were far from professional.

Shade Okoya also shared how her family responded to Chief Okoya’s interest, with the explanation that during their second meeting, one of his friends claimed to know her well, revealing a surprising connection to her family.

She said: “When I met my husband, it was not a typical kind of meeting. I met him for a different purpose entirely, it was more work related.

“Looking back now, I know that my husband had his own mission and purpose then. We met casually, he saw me and he was just all about ‘I will like to see you again’ and I saw him the next time and it was just straight to the point then.

“He said ‘I would like to marry you’ which to me was too soon and too sudden because I wasn’t expecting anything like that. It was later on I got to know that he actually wanted a wife immediately.

“I didn’t tell any of my family members, my husband actually made that move himself. When he met me the first time, I knew he liked me but I wasn’t too sure.

“When I saw him the second time and he dropped the question that he wanted to marry me, he doesn’t want to waste my time, he’s not into all those long kind of thing.

“You can understand from his own point of view that he has to be plain and honest, he doesn’t want to play around. I didn’t even know what to say, I didn’t even reply him but right there, I knew I wasn’t going to see him again.

“During that same visit, he was with his friends, they usually hang out together and one of them just took an interest and said he knows me very well, and along the line, he realised he knew my mum and my grandmother so later, I got to know that the man in question was an uncle,” she said.
