In Africa, it is common to see men getting married to women they are older than. In cases where it differs from the norm, eyebrows are raised as people give their unsought opinions on such relationships.
As rare as this may be in Africa, some women have taken the bull by the horns and married men younger than them, but they love.
Some Nigerian celebrities fall into this category. Amazingly, some have been married to their younger spouses for decades and have a happy family to show for it.
