"A wife is a woman who is troubled by the things that troubles you; who considers you in all of her dealings; who puts you first; who respects you; who honours you; who celebrates you; who comforts you; who submits to you; who apologizes for her wrongs; who is not happy going a day without talking to you; who is at peace with herself; who constantly looks for ways to be a better woman for you; who shares in your vision; who's committed to building with you; who supports you; who pampers you; who's emotionally sensitive and intelligent.  There are women for the moment and there is a woman who will be your life partner. If you confuse these two women, you will marry wrong and you will never be happy. Good evening beloved fans❤️"- Kenneth Okonkwo. One more photo below.
