We spoke, and elderly man who came with him asked him if he liked me.
“The man told my mother that Sunday was interested in marrying her daughter and I was already in love with him. That was how the love story started. I love him as a person, as well as his music. I was determined to marry him as if God had told me I had a future with him. It has been a very comfortable marriage with him. He is a man that one can relate with, very quiet, helpful, lovely and caring. Whenever people ask for my name, I tell them I am King Sunny Ade’s wife and they would exclaim, ‘Wow, I know him’. I always feel very happy. There is no regret in my marriage.The love I share with my husband is indescribable. Most young couples don’t do such. Forget his being a polygamist, he’s a committed husband. I still collect my monthly allowance from him up till date.
