Date My Family Nigeria: I’m looking for a woman like Genevieve Nnaji
The ultimate dating reality show, Date My Family: Nigeria, is back, and with a bang! To kick off this season is the tall, dark and handsome Ayomide, a 25-year-old music producer and artiste cum civil engineer who’s been single all his life. Yeah, you read that right! He wants a thick lady but won’t mind a beautiful Lepa with the right features—a great mind, good character and intelligence.
His ultimate woman, though, is Nollywood legend Genevieve Nnaji. “If Genevieve Nnaji came on the show, that’s the end,” Ayomide tells us. “I don’t even want to go another date, just her and I will be good for life. No more entanglement; Ayomide is taken.”
We don’t have Ms. Nnaji, but we have three gorgeous ladies who can rescue Ayomide from the single kingdom: Fade, an ex-beauty queen who is studying to become a pilot; Anita, a super religious pastor’s daughter; and Janet, a K-pop fan who describes herself as weird.
Ayomide visits Fade’s family first. They are serving potato-corn chicken soup with semi-ripe plantain and beans served with Efire sauce. He hopes they are as interesting as the menu. As he sits down, he’s asked the quintessential Date My Family: Nigeria question: why are you still single? Ayomide replies, and it is as hilarious as it is naughty: “The interesting question is, why is she single?” Don’t you just love Lagos single boys?
Well, Ayomide is single because he’s “busy and doesn’t have time for women”. It is not surprising given that he is a music producer and artiste during the weekend and works for his family’s construction company on weekdays. Who’s going to make him create time for another person in his life? Is it the religious Anita, the quirky Janet or Fade, whose smile we can’t stop looking at?
