“Love always wins” – Nigerian man celebrates as he marries his uncle’s daughter he carried and played with when she was a child

One Musa Elshaarawy from Gombe State has celebrated after marrying his “uncle’s daughter.”

LIB reported that Musa went viral after he announced his upcoming wedding, saying that they shared a great bond since she was a child.

“This is a photo of me and my uncle’s daughter. We took the picture in 2011. At that time, I was 12 years old, while she was 2 years and a few months old. I took very good care of her whenever she and her mother came to our house. We became so close that whenever she was crying, she would immediately stop as soon as I carried her. I still remember how I used to save my transport money to school just so I could buy her Choki Choki and cheese balls. Even though she was heavy, I would still carry her and play with her because of the strong bond between us. This girl’s name is Khadeejerh. Today, there are just 10 days left until I get married to her. Allah, I thank You,”

Taking to Facebook on Saturday, January 24, he shared photos from their wedding. 

“Love always wins. The girl that I used to clean my name in 2011 has become my wife. We will live forever by the grace of God. Oh Allah, bless our marriage. Alhamdulillah,” he wrote.
