Popular content creator Kuye Oghenevwede Adegoke, widely known as Egungun of Lagos, surprised fans with a touching birthday tribute to his wife, Pashotah, on Wednesday, July 2, 2025.
In the emotional post, Egungun revealed a little-known story about how they met. According to him, a decade ago, a friend gave him ₦3,000 to help find a lady from a tertiary institution in Lagos. He went on to introduce a young woman to that friend — not knowing she would eventually become his life partner.
Egungun humorously admitted that he never imagined the lady he brought for someone else would one day become his wife. His fans were touched by the heartfelt confession, especially as it came just days after he acquired his luxury G-Wagon Brabus worth over ₦600 million.
The post struck a balance between romance and humor, and quickly went viral, with many celebrating their journey from humble beginnings to luxury living.
He wrote, “Ten years ago, I was asked by a friend to find him a girl from YabaTech because he had more money than me. Honestly, I had no idea I would end up marrying the very girl I introduced to him. He literally gave me ₦3,000 to bring you to his house in Ajah. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MY LOVE. She has really been amazing.”
