On her birthday, a Nigerian lady marked the occasion by hosting a special date night for her fellow widows.
Anike, also a widow, shared a video on TikTok capturing highlights from the all-widow date night.
In the heartwarming clip, the ladies arrived elegantly dressed for the date night, posing for pictures and selfies with the celebrant, their gracious host.
The footage captured the elegant venue and the delicious meals they enjoyed. Reflecting on the date night, Anike grew emotional, sharing how these once-strangers had now become family.
The widow revealed that she told God of her desire not to celebrate this year’s birthday in her “lost self.” She expressed delight at having brought the widows out of their shells, noting that widowhood is not the end of the world. She appreciated the ladies for turning up.
