There is no helper

Oseni said he always makes extra effort because he knows his family has no helper.

Kudirat said that when her husband wooed her, she wondered how they would cope, seeing that they are both physically limited.

She stated that after three other men disappointed her, she accepted him and resigned to fate.

He is a great provider

Kudirat said despite all, she has never for once regretted marrying Oseni. The woman stated that he has been a good provider to her and their kids despite the fact that she is not working.

According to her, if she had married the person who could use his legs, she may not have enjoyed marriage as much as she is doing now.

Oseni has never begged

Oseni said that he is satisfied with the work he does and that is why he does not go around begging.
