Bayo was a fellowship leader so the lady approached him one day and asked that she would like to be a worker in the church.

I felt so much peace when I was with her

The young man said his interest in the lady grew strong by the day and then they became friends. He said:

“Each time I am with her I feel peace and love, so I said to myself one day, ‘I think God sent this angel to me’.. I asked God in prayers and he confirmed the she was mine anddddd so I grabbed it.”

Asking her out with a love note

In 2016, and on the lady’s birthday, the young man went to her hostel with a love note hidden in a book for her. Bayo devised that strategy because he was too shy to ask the lady out face-to-face.
