Wedding photos of Chinyelu and Ifeanyi who met on social media in the US

Chinyelu and Ifeanyi met through social media in the United States.

You can never underestimate the power of social media. Chinyelu revealed to us how she met her husband, Ifeanyi. She said Ifeanyi was scrolling through his friend’s Facebook page before he saw her picture. The pictures were so lovely and he couldn't help but send her a direct message.




She wrote,

"It was indeed unexpected for me to meet Ifeanyi. I had just moved to Atlanta, GA and was at a point in my life where I wanted to focus on myself and get adjusted to my new city. All of my friends and family knew that I didn’t care for blind dates. So, if they wanted me to meet someone, I told them to have them contact me via social media. If they did that, I would be able to see his photos and I would then be able to decide if I would respond or not. So one day, I received a message from Ifeanyi who is a friend of one of my best friends, one of my bridesmaids actually. He saw a picture of me and my  friend, and said I was beautiful.



It wasn’t until he told me he was a University of Miami Hurricanes fan (my college’s rival) that I became intrigued. I ran track at Florida State University and love my alma mater, so why would anyone want to be a University of Miami fan? I clearly had to find out why. Since then, we continued to message each other back and forth and I was starting to like what I saw in his personality.

After a while, he asked for my number and I gave her and since then our conversation has become more heartfelt, meaningful and sweet. In November, while I was visiting family and friends in Houston, he arranged that we meet at a restaurant, Fish and The Knife sushi restaurant and lounge.




Dinner was amazing and throughout the night, he had an amazing smile. After our first date, we traveled back and forth between Houston and Atlanta so that we could see each other at least twice a month. With every conversation and every visit, I saw myself falling more and more for this man. His words, his smile, his heart, and the way he looked at me, made me feel so special that I knew he was the one for me. That December, we had an amazing date at Sweet Georgia’s Juke Joint in Atlanta, GA. With jazz music filling the air, he told me how special I was to him and how much I meant to him. He told me he has never met anyone like me before and could see himself spending the rest of his life with me. It was at that point that he truly touched my heart. I had this wonderful feeling within and right then, I knew I was in love"

Celebration of a fulfilled life: Dr Olugbenga Kuponiyi How does one measure a life well spent? That question appears very simple, but puzzling when closely examined. Is life measured by the actions taken throughout one's lifetime? Or is it measured by the number of challenges a person overcomes in life. Whatever the case may be, both religion and history agree on one fact, a life well spent is that which leaves a positive mark on the sands of time. The much loved 46 year old father, husband, brother, uncle and friend Dr Olugbenga Kuponiyi who was born into the family of  Late Pa Elijah Oluwatayo Kuponiyi and Mrs Beatrice Kuponiyi on the 28th of October 1970, impacted many people in the course of his life. Little wonder then that hundreds from far and wide stormed Sagamu, Ogun state to pay their last respects and commiserate with his family during his funeral ceremony, amidst cheers and tears. Cheers because his legacy definitely will live after him and tears because even

Couple uses son as collateral for 8000 naira Family of  Ajala Samuel a 15 year old boy thought they could briefly use him to raise  some money for some urgent family needs. But four months after he has been handled over to a Lagos trader, identified as Iya Meta, who in return gave them N8,000, the boy is no where to be found. Sources confirmed that Iya Meta allegedly loaned Samuel to some other traders on the Lagos Island, who paid even more for the boy, N72,000.  The traders were alleged to have further given him out to another family in the state. It's more like a relay race in which runners pass baton to one another. Two policewomen, identified as Titi and Funmilayo from the Ijora Badia division, were accused of harassing the family to refund the N72,000 paid to Iya Meta, failing which Samuel would be forced to work till October 2017 when the contract would expire.

These women are paid to cry at funerals Some see this as funny, but to this group of women, this is 'real' business. Professional mourners make a living by attending the funerals of strangers The great wonders of the world have been penciled down as seven, but it seems each passing year comes along with its own wondrous tales. In Ghana, there have been many unbelievable tales but the one that currently tops the lot is the advent of women who are contracted to cry at funerals. Sounds weird right? But no matter how weird it is, it is happening in the country and these women are not even shy to speak on camera about this chosen career of theirs.
