"I went to the same secondary school with Kemi's cousin and she came for her cousin's introduction. I hadn't seen her cousin for a while so we agreed to hook up and catch up at Ooh la la in GRA Ikeja. I got out of my car and she got out of hers and I was like, 'who's that?' My friend said that's my cousin. This was in 2011. We started chatting and she said she has been single for four years and hasn't found what she's looking for. We exchanged numbers and started talking. She's very beautiful inside and outside. She's adventurous, daring and outgoing. Her willingness to learn and her love for God endeared me. The women I dated in the past, I tell them: 'Listen, I am a pastor. There are certain things you can't wear, certain places you can't go, certain things you can't say. It's never easy dating a pastor, especially where they are watching you to see how they can disqualify you. So when we talked about it and she said she is taking it seriously and putting all effort to make it work. I decided then to marry her. I proposed to her in March 2012. Kemi checks. If I have a list of she surpasses the list of women I have seen. She doesn't hold on to things. If she's wrong, she's quick to apologize. I love her heart for people. With her, you're not worried about infidelity, she's not that kind of a person. I'm really lucky!What Kemi has to say about Jimmy Odukoya when you continue...
I live in the UK and I was actually in Nigeria on holiday when we met in 2011. The first thing that struck about Jimmy is that he's very kind. And everyone he introduced me to said he's very kind and it radiates from him. We talked for hours, day and night for like three straight days. And in all that time he didn't tell me he was a pastor. When he eventually told me, I was silent. I think it's a big role but the way I see it, it's like two people meeting and falling in love and we are going to get married and we should go with the flow. The best part of it all is that we are friends. I feel very safe with him. He is sincere, caring, giving, handsome and wonderful. I always prayed for a happy marriage and God just answered my prayer.

Awwww, cute. HML guyz
best wishes...i pray for a happy home too.amen!!!
As am reading this am weeping. I always wished I would marry him or at least someone as kind as him. My b.f is beside me now, violent guy and dead drunk. He smells so bad of alcohol. What can I do. Never been lucky wiv men, and I can almost say I don't have hope. Meanwhile I know within me that am a good girl. All my friends want to be like me cus I am very discliplined. Seems its a crime to be good. All of my friends do runs yet they end up wiv the best men. Even when my father fell from grace to grass. I still didn't do it. Yt see who I ended up wiv. Maybe na home trouble. My elder sister never marry at 36, am scared! Don't want my own to be like that. Am just confused.
Awwwww!!! Beautiful story. :D
I love their pics, the love story is just too mainstream, nothing special from the normal thing we hear always, all the best to them all the same. #HML
Read this with a smile on my face. So so sweet, God bless their home. Jimmy, your mum should be proud where ever she is.
Wishing you guys the best of married life.

I wish d couples a Happy home.
I wish you a blissful marriage life.may God bless your union and may your union be fruitful in Jesus Name.
Lovely love story. This goes to show you don't have to court someone for donkey years before tying the knot.
It has been said that when a man sees what he wants, he goes for it irrespective of the time frame.
So all you ladies dating/courting for years, you all need to start evaluating your relationships.
HML Mr & Mrs Jimmy Odukoya
Lovely ...I can't wait to write my own love story with Tonto dike (~_^). ...checkout exclusive9jamusic
I will get d best man too IJN
Wishing y'all the good that marriage has to offer.
Girl get outta town...we both know when you saw Jimi Odukoya for the first you were like "damn he is fionneee" which one is "the first thing that struck me was his kindness"
Lucky u,happy 4 u both ....
Good for them. Lovely couple, I wish them well
Cute couple.....d guy looks like someone that'll know how to fuck.
'the women i dated in the past'?? Are u supposed to date any1 at all as a pastor?? My pastor alwayz warns against gf/bf relatnships n here a pastor is actually sayin he has dated oda women in d past b4 his now marriage...if i may ask wat hav u guys been discussin,doin 4 ova a year b4 u engaged her? Hmmm dis world dou,only God can judge
Tot I was gonna marry him:)
These guys were having sex before they got married. Look at those pictures. Men! So sexual. Sure u are a pastor( to the letter, that is)? And all his talk about her not being involved in infidelity. Sounds like someone who's been around women a lot. UK pastor, nowww, makes sense. Anyway enjoy your time together.
Happi 4 dem
And this is a love story?make a 3D movie about it nah.
God bless your union and here is a wonderful story I would read over and over and over again. It aint strange to me that no one has even commented on this, 'cos love is not shared by most people in this country. We don't love!!!
What a world we live in. If it is to be a negative story, before now, hundreds would have commented...hmmmmmm! Naijas!!!
How is this a love story biko???
Ok ooo we don hear! Congrats! Happy married life!!!!!!!
That so sweet, HML
God bless your marriage!
I pray to find true love like this too,I relate a lot to the part of her being single cos she hadn't found the right person. God I tap from this blessing and devine love story. Amen!

HML. You are a pastor indeed when u could tell her that there are some places she need not be seen or dresses she don't have 2 put on cos they are in vogue. Keep the legacies of your mum on course. The Lord will be with u in ur ministry

May you two find happiness and fulfilment in each other. God bless
My darlin maybe its ur mindset! U r holding on to ur fear of not being with a good man, dats y u kip attracting bad men. Read "The Secret" by Rhonda Byines. It hz all u need 2 knw. Then u can also read "Act like a lady think like a man" by steve Harvey. Don't worry bout nothing and don't ever belive dat any witch from any home can trouble u.
yawwwwwnnnnns....their story is rather boring. they're fine sha.
Ur life is just 2 sad
Awwww so touching! Wish you guys all the best in your marriage while I wait on God for my man.
Aww wishin u both HML u luk so adorable 2geda i luv...
Awwwwr,sorry darling...do u know wat turn to God,he is d only helper and he is ur creator,he knows wat is good for u,tell him deeply ur heart desires.Moreso,tlk to ur so called bf to change n give him space or rather look for a better guy and to be too quick to jump into guys hands,Friend dem first to know lil about dem...I Pray God will guide ur heart perfectly.Dnt worry it is well.
Awwwwww! Bless.xx
awwww cute..wish dem a hapi married lyf.
