He captioned the post:
“My faith in God never waivered… and in return, He blessed me with YOU. My forever love.”
For years, Paddy Adenuga has been regarded as one of Nigeria’s most eligible bachelors. He is admired not just for his wealthy background but also for his intellect, business acumen, and charisma.
