Nigerian Woman Overjoyed As Longtime Partner Marries Her After 13 Years Together by phosky(op): 6:46am On Oct 01, 2025
A Nigerian woman is celebrating as her longtime partner finally made their union official, 13 years after they first got together and started a family. The couple exchanged vows at the Lagos State marriage registry, where the bride looked radiant in a white gown, carrying one of their children. Eyes Of Lagos reports,

The bride shared that she had been with her partner since 2011, recounting a journey filled with both challenges and joy, including frequent quarrels along the way. Despite the ups and downs, she expressed immense gratitude that their love story culminated in marriage.

She joyfully stated:
“After 13 years in this relationship, maybe even 14, since 2011 when I first met him, it’s now he decided to marry me. I’ve already given him two children. I really tried; it wasn’t easy. After all the fights, we’re here today.”

The groom, meanwhile, kept his remarks brief, acknowledging that various factors had delayed their wedding but opting not to go into specifics. He shared:
“There are things I’d rather leave for God. As the saying goes, not everything seen from the top of the palm tree can be spoken about. Let God be the judge.”

The couple’s story is a testament to love, patience, and commitment, inspiring many who have faced long journeys before officially tying the knot.

I celebrate with you madam, hopefully the formslisation of your relationship doesn't cause even more challenges as I am sure you know being officially married means jack.

They have kids together already.

The man should shaa run a DNA test to confirm.

However, noticed how happy the woman is because she knows her value has reduced and men wouldn't be interested in her anymore should that guy not had married her. This just shows men have the keys to relationships and marriage.

The marriage serves as camouflage to end gossips. 2 kids means they're settled as family long time ago.. Happy for her tho

my brothers please take all the time in the world you need to study her even if it means two decades. It is very important cos at the end, your happiness, sanity and peace is very important.

As a man, you hold the value to a woman. Putting a ring on it adds more value and they all know this and that's why they don't mind staying for a decade waiting patiently for it. Keep kpanshing and remember to do DNA test after the long time of observation though

Im just happy she is not my friend. If not, na series of thunderous slaps she for chop for my hand to reset her dull brain. Just imagine, after 13 years? You no ask him why him wait 13yrs?

Sometimes it's not easy to gather money to marry a woman that her family will demand heaven from you as a struggling dude.


Thankfully she's now married officially....but my logic is, she was already married the moment the started having tue-tue and even had kids together.... This formal display of marriage is just for ceremony
Re: Nigerian Woman Overjoyed As Longtime Partner Marries Her After 13 Years Together by Kog45(m): 7:26am On Oct 01, 2025
Hmm, fornicating for good 13 years with two kids,do we called the innocent children out of marriage children or what......well congratulations

She is bearing in her imperfect relationship, going through the ups and downs and pushing on in her life despite it all.

You that you have your own perfect relationship, you want to use your hand to destroy another person's imperfect own, just because it doesn't suit your own definition of whatever, what exactly do you women gain with this attitude?

You may be right about the keys

But women kinda own the keys to your life in marriage...

This one is marriage at gunpoint... undecided

Why wait for so long?
Re: Nigerian Woman Overjoyed As Longtime Partner Marries Her After 13 Years Together by JustPowerApps(m): 7:36am On Oct 01, 2025
She played 13 years as forward left and still didn't net a single Ballon d'OR.

For the record, she got bleeped for 13yrs with no ring

Busybody!

Did the man tell you he has doubts about his kids?
Re: Nigerian Woman Overjoyed As Longtime Partner Marries Her After 13 Years Together by We4all: 7:42am On Oct 01, 2025
She is not happy for herself, but rather it's because she wants to pepper her neighbor, mama Nkechi who has been insulting her for being
a single mother. Instead of her to raise her kids happily and stay off that 'second hand' man, she is excited of getting married. A man who didn't find you worthy of marriage for over ten years should be avoided like a wild animal.
Re: Nigerian Woman Overjoyed As Longtime Partner Marries Her After 13 Years Together by emynike2001(m): 7:44am On Oct 01, 2025
Its a true picture of what has suddenly become a norm in our society this days, where we have some young women co habiting with their male friends. Funny enough this goes for years without proper marriage rites.
Some don't even know the family or even the village where their friends are from. Its too dangerous to live such life, in the cause of death of any of the two, the families of the deceased will never take it lightly ooo. As to carry out traditional stuff, YOU MUST MARRY the dead partner oooo.


Is it not better to marry her while she's alive now than to do same when is no more here? So ministers of God will even try to do group marriage and strongly advice that the man go to village and do a proper traditional marriage and pay the bride price and both should know their families.

If you are currently in this state of lifestyle, pls pay her bride price, do introduction, take a step..don't let money hinder you. You can't continue to keep someone's daughter in your house for so many years is too bad.

Marriage and courtship are two different ball game all together..

Many instances have been recorded where people separated after only couple of years in marriage after counting for close to 10yrs..

Are you okay?

The fact your girlfriend or wife is holding the keys to your life in your relationship doesn't mean we are like you bro.

Re: Nigerian Woman Overjoyed As Longtime Partner Marries Her After 13 Years Together by Dogalmighty17: 8:01am On Oct 01, 2025

always blaming the man. Did anyone hold her? Why didn't she propose the marriage?

"I have given him two children.?? " ...

your so called marriage rites is just gluttonous elderly men and women fleecing young couples they never contributed anything to their lives. That thing should be made voluntary. I have heard of people who sank into debt because of that jamboree.

Dude, I'm not the cause of your frustration this early morning.

How do women hold the keys to your life? Are you a simp or what for a woman to hold the keys to your life? There's something called DNA test, have you ever heard of it before?
Re: Nigerian Woman Overjoyed As Longtime Partner Marries Her After 13 Years Together by OGwales(m): 8:41am On Oct 01, 2025
Of course she should be happy and over happy, na only women dey benefit from marriage. Oga hope you have done DNA 🧬 because it is more important than all this nonsense. I don't want to hear touching stories tomorrow, ehnnn
