It was my Grandparents that gave me the gift of my wig and gown and other accessories as I got called to the Nigerian Bar as a Barrister and Solicitor. It was quite some cost at the time. They now had three grandchildren as lawyers. But in service year, I knew I would be going into full-time ministry. I was […]
About 11 years ago, I got into my office and met a note saying that a childhood acquaintance had checked up on me. He promised to come back. He left his contact. I was excited to call him.

Irewamiri decided to sew a new garment for our daughter for her third birthday celebration. The moment I announced to Olive that Mummy was sewing a dress for her, her face lit up.

The day after our wedding, a dear one called and we responded that we were already in the place we chose for our honeymoon. We were to be there for the whole week. She said to us, “You both are very smart. We did not have any honeymoon. We just went back home to continue life and we had spent […]

I had a list of those my wife must meet before we got married (asides from my relatives). We made quite some trips. It was tough, but it was necessary. At a point, someone told us that we had to reduce our trip, but I explained that it was key that my wife met all the people concerned. One of […]
