Nigerian singer Timi Dakolo has responded to a comment on social media that questioned his wife’s love for him, shedding light on their journey and the role she played in his success. The exchange began when an X user, identified only as Dickon, reacted to Dakolo’s statement about the early days of his relationship. In a recent post, Dakolo shared how his wife used to feel embarrassed when he picked her up in the branded Picanto car he had won from the Nigerian Idols competition.
Dickon, commenting on the post, expressed disbelief at the narrative, questioning why Nigerian men often portray love as suffering. He remarked, “I suffer for this girl hand” is not a flex, calling the situation an example of unrequited love. He added, “Man was working so hard to get her to be with him even though she was embarrassed by him. What is funny about this story?”
Timi Dakolo, known for his candidness, wasted no time in responding, clarifying that his wife, who has been by his side for nearly 15 years, helped him grow and “level up.” He explained that the couple often reflects on those early days and laughs about the struggles they faced together. Dakolo emphasized that every love story is unique, adding, “Do and tell your own love story as you will.”
The singer’s response has sparked a wave of support from his followers, with many applauding his open and positive perspective on relationships. His comments not only highlight the evolution of his marriage but also challenge the narrative around love and success, offering a reminder that true partnership is built on growth, perseverance, and mutual support.
