Her Excellency, MRS. BETTY ANYANWU-AKEREDOLU,write How Love at first worked for her and the husband.

 Imo daughter pour her heart in joy on there inauguration  into the Ondo government .

 "I met my husband in Enugu, he was a youth Corper then in the State. I was also posted to Enugu.

So, a friend of mine visited me and she came along with her boyfriend who also came with my husband.

That was how we met and it was love at first sight. I think people frown at love first sight but it worked for us.


I fell in love with his broad shoulders. Then, he was really looking cute. I can still remember what he was wearing that day - a red shirt, long sleeves and a jean trouser.

That was 37years ago. He couldn't even take me out because he didn't have money as a youth Corper. It was quite magnetic and that was it.

There is 3-year age difference between us. I am older than him anyway. I was 25 then when he was 22. It was love that really endured.

I had graduated and in my place (Owerri, Imo State) when a girl graduates from the university suitors come from left, right and centre. And your parents would expect you to go for a made man with everything, but i have always known that there was no way i could have married a self-made man.

I will better build a home from the scratch with you because i want to have a say in my home.
