You can find love anywhere - Kingsley Madugba
According to Kingsley Madugba, there is no template for finding love as social media is another means of connecting with people.
He said:
"You can find love anywhere and social media is just an avenue amidst the other avenues. It is more important to know that you have found love. Because finding love is more important than where love was found. In the end, it's not where you met your partner that matters. It is meeting your partner that matters."
