Timi Dakolo expressed that he endured hardships to earn his wife’s love.
Nigerian singer Timi Dakolo recently shared the charming story of how he met his wife, Busola, during an interview with Pulse. The couple, who married in 2012 and are blessed with three children, have a narrative that highlights the virtues of determination and resilience in love.
Timi recounts their first encounter in church, where he approached Busola with the intention of asking her out for a ball. Although she provided her phone number, she initially showed little interest in pursuing a romantic relationship, often leaving his calls unanswered. Undeterred, Timi continued to visit the area in hopes of seeing her again. Their eventual conversation revealed that Busola had lost her phone, which had prevented her from responding.
As their friendship blossomed, Timi found himself developing deeper feelings for her, but Busola was intent on keeping things platonic. He described his efforts to win her affection as a struggle, stating, “I suffered to win her love.” His dedication was evident in the way he supported her, often driving her to and from work.
Interestingly, Timi also shared a light-hearted moment from their courtship, recalling how Busola felt embarrassed when he picked her up in the branded Picanto he had won from the inaugural season of Idols West Africa in 2007. Despite these challenges, Timi remained resolute, promising to surprise her and prove that she should not underestimate him.
Their story serves as a testament to the power of persistence in love, demonstrating that genuine affection can triumph over initial reluctance. Timi Dakolo and Busola’s journey reminds us that true love often requires patience, effort, and unwavering commitment.
