About Me

I’m a Lagos-born, Atlanta-based nonprofit leader who believes compassion can heal just about anything. By day I champion human rights and social justice; by night you’ll find me journaling, taking long walks, binge watching mind numbing tv to destress, or whisper-praying under the stars. I don’t have kids so I am everybody’s mother.

Life has handed me plot twists, but I wear hope like a favorite scarf. Friends describe me as “kind, vivacious, honest, sometimes too busy, always fair.” They’re not wrong—I laugh in the wrong places and never remember names (help!). Goofy? Yes, I am. Adorably so.

My love languages? All five, but quality time and the right hug top the list. Burna Boy on repeat, Nigerian comfort food on the stove, late-night talks about theology or world politics—welcome to my happy place.

“Home” is wherever my family, friends, and future partner are—I travel light in geography, heavy in heart.

  • Controversial Opinion

    Ostentatious displays of wealth are really displays of insecurity and ignorance. More Warren Buffett. Less gold toilets if you know what I mean.

Looking For:

A single, monogamy-minded man (55-65) who is emotionally intelligent, secure in himself, and still fascinated by the world. You read for pleasure, laugh easily, and value fairness, feminism, and family. Political alignment matters (progressives click here), and a playful sense of humor is mandatory. If you’re financially stable and excited to share a life—travel, co-create a cozy home, spoil kids/grandkids together—I’m all in. Christian but not fundamentalist. Please!

Deal-breakers: MAGA vibes, smoking/vaping, active addiction, polygamy, cheating, dishonesty, animal haters.

Think best-friends-plus-spark: holding hands on long walks, swapping favorite books, cooking Jollof rice together, loving each other’s people, and showing up—every day—with honesty and kindness. No rush, just genuine partnership that grows at its own healthy pace.

Life’s more fun when both partners feel secure—emotionally and financially. I’m looking for a man who’s steady in both.
