My younger brother was the one who took it upon himself to shop for a wife for me

I didn't know where I got that idea
It was most likely from reading Wole Soyinka's The Lion and the Jewel too many times

I graduated from Bowen University in 2008 to discover this lady had met another guy in UI and wanted nothing to do with me anymore

moved from Ibadan to Lagos
It was an opportunity to leave the dead grave of the past and follow the rising sun into a new reality in a new environment
I had lost every interest in skirts at this time
I just wanted to be alone and live my life in safety
I didn't even try to live

My younger brother @dafidimimo had been dating his babe for some years and needed to get married
He told my mother his plans
My mother was happy but she begged him to appeal to me to snap out of gloom and live again
My mother said "He may never get married if he doesn't get help"

She had told me all along that the relationship I had with this lady will not work out because she was a cheat but I didn't listen to my mummy because I didn't know how she came about her postulation

My brother was a "one girl" for a lifetime guy
He practically led me to the Lord in 2007 when I met the Holy Spirit
He doesn't do immorality in any way
He really meant what he said about the lady and that got me very curious

the lady's phone number and sent her a text message
I never expected a response
I did it so that when my brother asked me if I made a move, I would reply to him that I did
I got a reply
In the text, I introduced myself
In her reply, she introduced herself too
We began to exchange

I had a TV at home but I had not turned it on for months
I prefer to read and found the TV to be a distraction
I realized that she had a point, I didn't know her as much as I thought I did yet if I didn't even know she was a Newscaster and all

We talked and warmed up to each other
I told her I want to marry her
She said she was told by

She started using it immediately, even though it was cheaper than the
Samsung phone she had bought for herself a few months before I met her
On my birthday, she gave me 100,000 Naira cash to spend as I wish
Her parents and well-wishers were concerned about my lack of a stable job
I remember hearing her saying to her Uncle "Have you heard him speak?

Everything she saw came to pass, everything she heard by the spirit
Remember that I didn't say I heard anything or saw anything by the Spirit
That was because I didn't!
