He asked for his 40-year-old mother's opinion, but the friends and family spoke instead.
"Really? We cannot accept. She is older than your mother. Are you sure, or did her money make you fall for her? This is not love. You are being used,” said a woman in pink.
She further stressed their age differences, saying:
“This woman has been to many places and seen many things. I don’t think it’s possible for you to date.”
Amid the onslaught, Promise held Terrryanne’s hand but only aggravated the situation.
“Stop touching each other in front of us. What are you trying to show us? Are you the first person to fall in love?
"Do you want to touch this old woman in front of your mum?” wondered the woman.
The young man's family threatened to disown him
She promised to help Promise find a younger woman to marry and threatened to disown him.
“If you insist on staying with her, you will curse this family.”
She passed on the baton to another woman who had similar sentiments. Midway through the lecture, they again held hands, prompting her to stand up.
“Don’t hold each other before me,” she menacingly said.
The woman then said that they would never accept the relationship.
“We thought he was bringing a young woman. Not this grandma.”
However, a younger woman said she saw no problem as long as they loved each other, but the two women protested.
Promise and Terryanne held hands again, and the women threw them out of the house.
"Go and never come back."
What Terryanne bought for Promise
Still, on the couple, Terryanne disclosed that she had gifted Promise a piece of land and registered it in his name.
“He said he didn’t want a car,” she said.
However, it was not smooth sailing, as the couple said they faced backlash and threats.
Nigerian man shows off older girlfriend
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a Nigerian man had shown off his older girlfriend who is 32.
The 25-year-old man shared on TikTok a lovely video he made of them when he called at her shop as he wrote about their relationship.
According to him, he had thought that she was deceiving him owing to their age difference, as she is 32 years of age. At her shop, she gave him food to eat and made sure he finished it. The excited man wrote that he blessed the day they met and that nothing would come between them.
