Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, the host of Big Brother Naija, has disclosed
how he met his wife on social media and why very little is known about his
private life.
According to him, that there was no intention to marry her
from the beginning, but later realized their values aligned so strongly that an
attraction started to form.
The 39-year-old lawyer stated this during an interview with
Schick Magazine, adding that he keeps his family life private because he chose
the path to the limelight, not his family.
He said, “I met her on Twitter. We followed each other,
exchanged messages a few times, and then kept it moving.
“The connection wasn’t instant, but over time I think I
realised that, beyond how much of a happy person she is, our values aligned so
strongly that an attraction started to form. It also helped that she has the
biggest smile in the world and laughed a lot at things I said and vice versa.
From the day we started talking seriously, I knew literally two months later
that I wanted to marry her.”
Speaking on why very little is known about his private life;
the media personality said, “If I could, I would never talk about them or even
put out images of them anywhere. But, I cannot help it because I also love to
celebrate them and show off how blessed I am with such an amazing wife. So, I
have to balance it out and do it on my terms.”
The father of two added, “It’s very tough on different
levels. For me, I get very riled up when she is attacked or talked about; I’m
very defensive and protective of her.
“For her, while she’s also defensive of me, I think it’s
more the fact that she was suddenly thrust into this life without knowing what
to expect, so it took her a while to come to terms with it. She still fully
hasn’t, but it’s a lot easier now.”
