You are not only my greatest Pleasure, but my greatest Reward……

Boom, thank God it is Monday!

Happy Easter Monday our highly esteemed KFbers…we hope you had a great celebration over the weekend?!

We have got a beautiful couple for you today – Macmillan and Amaka.

The high school sweethearts met in 2006, got engaged last year and got married two weekends ago in Lagos.

Their story as narrated by the groom!

Our path crossed in 2006, I was this fun guy who was enjoying
every step of the way in university. Got lots of friends and was quite
popular on campus. Tricky thing about this dude was how he did it all
this and his grades were awesome.

You make me happy, you are all I care about in this sometimes crazy world we live in

The blessed day came when I had to
unexpectedly go to the library to complete an assignment didn’t really
know my way around because I wasn’t a regular.

Got to the door about opening it when this true real
beauty I mean pure beauty pushed the door from inside and bumped into
me. Was startled, we stared for some seconds before conceding to the
bump. Watched her as she made her way out of the library.

When you know you’ve found the one.. it just makes you sing!

In this
unusual place I found myself, surfed for materials and got my table
fully loaded with books to give that serious look. Getting around it,
looked up and saw this same beauty walk in hoped and prayed she came sit
around me which was the case.

Hold my hand, whisper sweet words to me, tell me of forever and our journey there. The laughs we shall laugh, the children we will raise, the love we will share and the life we will live

Yea, we have got swag like that

I will always protect your heart, value your loyalty, uplift your spirit and love you unconditionally….

I have a crush on your mind. I fell for your personality. Your looks are just a bonus

Imagining a lot of things in my head and anticipating what
to say to her. I heard “please can I use the dictionary?” and that was
it. Got chatting got her number and called her every single day during
the Christmas holidays that year. Upon resumption, it felt like we never
went on break and I knew her since like forever. She was this shy babe,
timid and greeted everybody that passed by her.

You have made me a better person..thank God for you.

Without wasting no time, I popped the question and this
babe left me in cloud lalala forming hard to get for almost a year. She
finally succumbed and we started dating in 2007. We both learnt so many
things from each other and sacrificed a lot too. It all paid off at the
end.

Left her in school in 2010 whilst I was serving but dared
the road every month from Ebonyi state to come see my beautiful damsel.

The bling moment!!!

Last year on the 1st of Oct,
which was the month of our 8th year anniversary, I pulled off a
surprise proposal, thanks to family and staff of Ebeano super market
Lekki 1.

‘Cause, honey, your soul could never grow old, it’s evergreen
And, baby, your smile’s forever in my mind and memory

Everything in my life revolves around a single thought – how I can keep you happy, because I love you a lot. And, darling, I will be loving you ’til we’re 70

Fast forward, to the 12th of March 2016 I married the
most beautiful woman in the world and my Baby. We find it hard to live
each day without each other because we both best friends.

Surprise bridal shower for the bride

We vow to make
this work till the end of day and enjoy every step of the way under
God’s guidance.

I look at you and see the rest of my life in front of my eyes. ..

He just looked at her with so much love for her and she couldn’t help but get emotional, the thought of sharing her life with the love of her life made her so emotional that she kept crying and laughing at the same time while saying her vows, she had to take it 3 times before she made it through the vows. May your love for each other never die.


I could easily say that I love you to death, but I really want to live forever to love you eternally.

Our love is… sweet and exciting, heartwarming and tingling, passionate
and sensational, protective and inspirational, warm and funny, cute and
cozy, hot and luscious, charming and delicious.
