Expecting a romantic evening at a fancy restaurant, she expressed how shocked she was when he took her to a simple amala buka (local food joint) in Shitta, Surulere, Lagos.
In his defence, Metche argued that it was one of the top spots back then
“Pick your plate and join the queue,” he told her in an experience that marked the beginning of their marriage.
She opened that when she met Metche, he was still struggling to find his feet and was only able to afford a turkey for her during their first date.
In the podcast clip, the couple laughed as they relived the memory, highlighting how their relationship began with humility and authenticity, rather than extravagance.
In another clip from the episode, Nnenna recounted their wedding day, when her husband insisted they drove to church in his rickety car despite having the opportunity to make use of expensive cars provided by family members.
Isaac and Nneka Isaac-Moses, iconic founders of the Pan-African culture and tourism television show Goge Africa, have been married since 1996. Their TV show was popular in the early 2000s.

Wish I could get my parents to talk about how they met and post it, but they don't really like cameras and publicity so I guess I'll have to ask them for permission to talk about their love story. My parents are the reason why I still believe in love because they didn't just teach me, they led by example."
