first time when the mother of two flew into Kano over the weekend.

women after finding love with a white lady.
“Di truth be say our women

but if white woman tell you say she love you, bros she mean am from di bottom
of her heart.”
“We meet after i start to
follow her for instagram and if she post pishure i go like am, den afta small
time I come see say some Yahoo boys dey try scam her, so I send her message say

honest pesin I be. Na dat one first attract her.”
“From dia we come dey chat
wella, video calls and na all dat one lead us to this level wey we dey.”
When asked if they have both
slept in the same room since Janine came to Kano, he said:
“We no dey sleep for di same
room, i dey stay with her till night before i go tell her good night, even dis
one wey we dey do (small hugs and holding hands) pipo dey talk talkless of
sleeping together.”
