A Nigerian woman named Courage Okeola shared on social media her understanding of her parents’ rejection of her request to marry the man of her dreams, in a story that is currently going viral online.
According to Courage, she said that because her child’s father is a mechanic, her parents have forbade her from marrying him. According to Courage, she had been dating her baby’s father for two years before to becoming pregnant.
She also disclosed that her parents had advised her to leave the child she was seeing a mechanic and go back home because he wasn’t wealthy or had a nice job, but she wanted to stay with him due to their shared love for one another. She added that her baby daddy’s family had planned to wed her for their son but that her parents had turned down their invitation.
