Briefly

First meeting in 2002 and reconnecting in 2021, their bond revolved around literature, making the bookshop an ideal proposal setting. Shared visits and memories at House of Books & Friends in Manchester underlined their connection. Surrounded by supportive friends and the sounds of familiar Nigerian music, Folajimi orchestrated a heartfelt moment that celebrated both their relationship and the couple's love for books.
The ambiance of the bookshop during the proposal was electric, with booksellers almost as nervous as Folajimi as he prepared to ask Chioma the big question.
