VIDEO: Adeleke gives 28-year-old daughter one year to get married

Ademola Adeleke, the governor of Osun state, has urged Nike, his daughter, to find a partner and get married.

During a Q&A session shared on her Instagram page on Saturday, Nike inquired how Ademola felt about her not marrying at 28.

“I am now 28 and I am about to be 29. How do you feel about me not being married yet?” she asked her dad.

In his reply, the governor told her he was giving her “one more year” to tie the knot, adding that she was not getting younger.

“Better start getting ready to get married. That is the next thing. You think you are young? I am expecting all those your toasters, better bring one so you can come and tell me dad this is the one I am going to marry,” he said.

“Do you know that at the age of 27, 28 I got married and I had your brother Adesina? You are now 28, I am giving you one more year.”
