A young Nigerian man is currently a trending topic on social media after photos of him getting married to an elderly white woman surfaced online.
He joins the growing list of young men in the country seeking a sweet escape from the hardships many are faced with, by getting hitched with ‘Oyibo’ lovers who are older than them.
In a recent tweet, the man simply known as David who married an unidentified Caucasian woman, was congratulated by his friend @Emmlexxz who posted the wedding photos online.
