CAN ANY MAN OF THIS GENERATION DO THIS ? CHANGE YOUR NAME TO MARRY A WIDOW/ WOMAN ..

In Colonial Lagos , Lady Oyinkan Ajasa (Lady Oyinkan Abayomi) was born daughter of Sir Kitoye Ajasa, a Yoruba aristocrat who was the first Nigerian to be knighted by the British, and Lucretia Olayinka Moore, a princess of Egba royal family, in Lagos, was born on March 6, 1897.

She schooled at the Anglican Girls' Seminary in Lagos and graduated in 1909. From there to Young Ladies Academy at Ryford Hall, Gloucestershire. In 1917, she attended the Royal Academy of Music in London. She moved back to Lagos in 1920 and became a music teacher at the Anglican Girls' Seminary.

It was during this time when she met a lawyer named Mr Moronfolu Abayomi ( the love of her life ) whom she married in 1923.

He was aasasinated 2 months later in court, she was devastated and didn't want to marry anyone ever again .

Dr Kofo John wanted to marry her and her response was, "you have to change your name to my late husband's name - Abayomi"
Guess what happened?

He agreed, married her and changed his name to Dr Kofo Abayomi .
The very famous Dr Kofo Abayomi

Things men do for love !
Happy Sunday

Lovely!

When will I read a similar story about a woman that changed her name to marry a man? Don't tell me about women changing their surnames for the sake of marriage, that one is different.

This is a huge sacrifice on the part of the man

Things dey happen oooooo

Fake. She remarried a man with the same surname as her late husband. Imagine a Yoruba man in 1923 telling his family he’s getting married to a widow and adopting her late husband’s name. He would have been sacrificed to the gods.

It’s one thing to allow the woman keep the name but to adopt it as mine. Na ment?

Kofo John (Abayomi) really tried no man can do that in this generation anymore or else they will tag him SIMP

Change my surname to that of a potential love interest? Never!

King of all Simps
