The 39-year-old Cameroonian, Kwoyela Derick, who works as a teacher, met his girlfriend, Kahboh Patience, 28, in January 2022 and they started dating.
Speaking in an interview, Derick said “Her character attracted me. She is perfect because she gives me maximum respect and she is God-fearing too”
“One of our biggest obstacles was when we were planning to get married. Her friends and some people close to her were complaining and asking why she is getting married to short man like me”
“I have promised to take good care of my wife. I want our story to be an inspiration to everyone, including those who have lost hope in love. There is a chance and someone special for us all,” he said.
Their traditional wedding has been slated for April 6, 2023, in Bali Nyonga, while the white wedding ceremony has been fixed on April 8 in Bamenda.
On her part, Patience who is a seamstress by profession, said she is ready to stand by her man ‘for better and for worst.’
