He said:

“My mother named my wife Adesuwa, which means centre of wealth. Her mother jus got transferred from Calabar to Nifor in Benin city and was pregnant at the time. Her mother joined my mother’s meeting of some group of hardworking elite women. When her mother gave birth to her, my mother named her Adesuwa. She became my mother’s special child.”

The man’s wife added:

“When your mother saw all the things my mother brought, she said this child would be named Adesuwa. At the same time, my grandmother was also naming me Adesuwa. The two names at the same time corresponded.”

She also shared how they both grew up as siblings, always being there for one another till her mother jokingly told her that he was her husband.

Along the line, he eventually became her husband.

The woman added:

“We act as family, couple, siblings and friends.”

Their daughter also stated that her mum’s birthday was June 6 while her dad’s was June 8, adding that they were destined to be.

In the comments, she added that their age difference was 7 years.
