The love story dates back to 2011 when the couple first connected on 2go. Initially, her fiance expressed interest in a date, but she wasn't ready at the time. The unexpected turn of events occurred when he visited her church unannounced on a Saturday morning. Seated in a different row, he discreetly took pictures of her during the church service.
Recalling the amusing incident, Nwankpa shared, "When I got home, I received my pictures taken at close range inside the church. I was very angry because I wasn’t in my best outfit (Mum’s gown and shoes). We became very good friends thereafter, but I refused to meet him."
