THE BIRTH OF A PRINCE!

In the Eastern part of Nigeria, the value of a male child can never be overemphasized.

This is still part of their tradition in present day, because the male child is destined to carry on the family name.

You can only imagine the joy when a man who already had three daughters eventually has a son.

Such was the occurrence at the birth of this prince.

His names, Chukwuemeka Samuel Iheanacho was a clear indication that his arrival, though long anticipated, would bring good tidings, blessings and open doors.

I speak as an eye witness to this because I was one of those who welcomed him, after all I am his immediate elder sister.

Emy has grown into a handsome, dependable, godly, supportive, knowledgeable and reliable young man full of wisdom beyond his age.




I cannot begin to say all that this young man has been to me and my family at large but we remain grateful for his birth.

How he manages to successfully sail the family ship, as the first son, with 5 women, of which 3 are his senior, still baffles me.

He is one I can call in the middle of the night and he'll abandon everything to come to my rescue.

I specially love him for many more reasons, irrespective of the fights we had during our childhood days.

Words best used to describe him include loving, caring, kind, prayerful, gentle, peaceful, loyal, to mention but a few.

He's my ride and die Nigga of life and I know he'll be a wonderful husband and father some day.




Nwoko, as we fondly call him, today you add another year, I want you to know that you are loved, appreciated and valued far more than gold, diamonds and rubies.

Thank you for all you do for me and all those around you, especially when you go out of your way to make us happy.

May all your heart desires come to full manifestation.

Happiest birthday my Mannest Man!




The Tory Teller loves you plenty.

Pls drop a kind word for him.
