According to a video posted on Toke Moments Podcast on Friday November 13, 2026, Linda Ejiofor said she kept her feelings to herself for months and did not tell her future husband she wanted to marry him. She spoke about the early days of their relationship in an interview with the host. The two are now close to eight years of marriage.
Linda said they met through mutual friends and became close friends for a year. She said he had been introduced to her several times before she recognised him. She said she finally noticed him when he made her laugh at an interview spot.
She said a dance stage play brought them together again. She said they began to hang out as friends after that. She said she liked him as a person because he was kind and easy to talk to.
In her words, Linda Ejiofor said, “I noticed how he was talking to the person who came to take our order, how nice he was. Then I remembered, we were driving past a security guard and he would say, hi, how are you doing, how is the family.
"He was always nice, soft-spoken and kind. I looked at him and thought, I like this guy. I think I am in love with this guy. I did not tell him. I kept it. In a silent prayer I said, God, this is the man I want to get married to,” she said.
The host asked if he felt the same way at the time. Linda said he did not. She said she believed he was also shy.
She said that months later she acted on her feelings. She said they had been out and he dropped her home. She said she then kissed him, and he kissed her back.
