Sharing a video collage of them and their three kids, he revealed that he met his wife in 1988, and after a few love letters, they became friends. He said the pursuit of higher education pulled them apart, but destiny brought them back together.
He noted that on the first of September, they got married in Port Harcourt, where they first met and fell in love, and are now blessed with three children. He said God has seen them through a turbulent world that is always chasing.
The veteran actor said he and his wife aren’t chasing records or trying to prove people wrong, but are just living their lives and showing themselves that they made the right decision.
“We met in 1988, a few love letters later we became friends. The pursuit of higher education pulled us apart, but destiny brought us back together. On the 1st of September 2001, in the city where we met and fell in love (Port Harcourt), we exchanged marital vows, supported by family and friends.
God has blessed us with three lovely young adults, kept us in good health and has seen us through a turbulent world that is always changing.
We are not chasing records or trying to prove people wrong. We are just living our lives and showing ourselves that we made the right decision…in love, trust, faith and humility.
Zizi, my darling wife, thanks for saying YES 25yrs ago…thanks for believing, thanks for staying, thanks for helping me find direction, thanks for your sacrifices. Please, let’s do another 25yrs and beyond….you know me as no one does. I love you forever.
Happy 25th anniversary, Zizi”.
