Every man who ate at Mama Tolu's bukka in Yaba proposed within a week. We thought it was love.

Timeline. Tuesday: my cousin eats ofada stew at Mama Tolu's bukka. Also Tuesday: my coworker. Also Tuesday: a man who sells phone covers. By Friday, all three had proposed to someone. Nobody was joking. My colleague said it was the first time he had said what he really felt. Then my boss proposed to me on Zoom. I accepted nothing.
