First date, he asked about my family.
I told him how only my dad raised my brother and I, how he did menial jobs to make sure we graduate and how I love him so much.
Then he says "that your father, if I marry you, you'll forget about him o, throw him one side and focus on me."
Ladies reply with some of the reasons you stopped talking to a man.
But some people consider petty.
I’ll start- one time a Man called me and I was sorting out laundry to give my guy who washes for me.
He said: you mean you don’t wash clothes?
I never spoke to him again please

So, no. There was no 'inspiration'.
If Peter Obi ends up winning the presidential elections in Nigeria, you could argue that it would represent the most significant political impact of the George Floyd protests anywhere in the world -- including the US.

"Saddened". The replacement for "shocked"
Oh wait, there's 'shock' in the last sentence. 😅
Saddened by the attack on the Medium Security Custodial Centre, Kuje. I am disappointed with the intelligence system. How can terrorists organize, have weapons, attack a security installation and get away with it? I am expecting a comprehensive report on this shocking incident.

He followed me to university and we searched for a house together.
When I was going to NYSC camp in Cross River, he followed me to the park and waited till the bus took off.
That’s love and care.
That’s parenting.
Today is Jamb examination, I don't know why parents follow a grown up to the exam centre. will you follow them to the university when they finally gain admission? Which kind of parenting style is that one?
