So next to Bellanaija, when she was still a blog, the next blogger I knew was Vera. Her veratic blog was shared on a Nigerian community message board, and her articles too. I liked her voice and followed her blog when she mentioned she was also an aspiring writer. When I started blogging, she was also among the first to follow and encourage me. Since then, I've got to know her, speak to her on the phone and hope to meet her one day.
Now, if you've read a few of her older blogs, you'll know Vera is a romantic. If she's not talking about relationships and how she wants everyone to get it right, she's writing about meeting the man of her dreams. So I am very happy for her that she has met the awesome guy who - as is obvious from her writings, and speaking to her too - makes her heart sing.
Igwe, as she calls him, has put a ring on it and Vera decided to share some of the pictures on her blog for us friends and blogggers to see. I wish them more joy and blessings in their union. Enjoy pictures and video below...

ReplyDeleteNice one @Myne.
I don't understand the wife part of Vera's comment but it was funny.
ReplyDeleteI wanted to know who Vera was after a Baba Oyo commentator lashed her. He did not realize that Vera was fair with her comment and called her unprintable names. I had to laugh until tears fell from my eyes a few years ago. Na wa for Baba Oyo ooo.
Anyway, congrats, so we now know what Igwe looks like. He is good looking and Vera is pretty. Gbosa!
