Saturdays in Nigeria are synonymous with weddings, and now Lagos based Richards Ugochukwu has added some spice to the day… he proposed to his girlfriend.
Taking it back to where they first met, Ugochukwu proposed to Ihuoma live on Twitter, about 3 hours ago this hot Saturday afternoon, April 5, 2014.
See his tweets that preceded the proposal. You can call it a prologue to the main story:
