Nigerian professional photographer,
Jide Kola, is engaged after sweeping
his lady off her feet with a romantic
proposal in Dubai. His lady who
suspected she was about to be
proposed to was left “disappointed”
after searching for the ring all to no
avail.
Read how the surprise proposal was
narrated online.
Jide had been owing me a vacation to
Dubai for so long, in fact I had a Dubai
flight ticket that had been rescheduled
more than thrice, because there’s
always one wedding or the other
making him busy. I can’t complain too
much, I’m dating a workaholic..
I’ve always wanted an intimate
proposal, but with the most important
people to me involved – my brother and
my best friends. I believe I might have
mentioned this in passing and he was
attentive enough to catch it (don’t
wanna give him the credit of being so
accurate with his plan
We packed for the trip, Dubai here we
come… Finally! I searched his whole
house for a ring, the whole travel
boxes… No ring; so this guy won’t
propose to me in this our Dubai Waka.
When we got to Dubai, he took me
shopping to buy a dress and said we
were going to a house party with his
long time friend that lives in Dubai, i
tried on a few dresses and we arrived
at one. I should have guessed.
We left for the party later that evening,
his long time friend took us there, and
on opening the door to the “house
party”; boom! It was our pictures, and
balloons and rose petals, with gentle
music playing in the background.
He led me to the balcony and I saw
four of our closest friends holding
balloons. Nobody told me y’all were in
Dubai
