My husband and I met in 2021 at the NYSC Orientation Camp in Wailo, Bauchi State. According to him, it was love at first sight. He arrived at camp before me, and on the day I got there, during registration and kit collection, I noticed a young man staring at me. It felt odd, but I brushed it off.
Later, during the parade ground assembly, I ran into him again with some of his new friends. To my surprise, he approached me and asked to take my picture. Amused, I agreed, and we got talking. That’s when I realized we were in the same platoon.
The first week, I wasn’t giving him much attention despite his persistence. He invited me to Mami Market and tried chatting with me before lights out. However, I remained skeptical, cautious of camp stories about guys chasing girls for fun (cruise).
At one point, one of his friends, who had also grown close to me, tried speaking on his behalf since I wasn’t entertaining him anymore. To get some peace, I said I’d think about it. My bunkmate, who noticed his consistency, encouraged me to give him a chance. She believed he was genuine, and that got me thinking.
When camp activities started, things changed. I was selected to contest for Miss Wailo and joined the quarter guard. Throughout, he was my biggest supporter—accompanying me to rent costumes, helping with my hair, and rallying cheers for me. When I was announced as the first runner-up, he celebrated like I had won. That night, his actions melted my heart, and I decided to give him a chance.
After camp, we faced challenges as we relocated to different states—he to Osun and I to Abuja. Despite the distance, he stayed determined. He visited me in Abuja, and I traveled to Osun. We maintained our long-distance relationship from 2021 to 2024, growing stronger each day.
On November 16, 2024, in the presence of family and friends, we exchanged vows and began our forever journey as husband and wife. Babe, thank you for loving me.
Long live Wailo camp! Long live NYSC! Long live Nigeria. Mr & Mrs A 💍
