On June 27, 2025, a deeply personal story aired on Agidigbo FM’s Kokoro Alate, hosted by Oriyomi Hamzat, capturing hearts across Nigeria and beyond. Here’s what unfolded—and why it became a topic of global compassion.
The Emotional Broadcast
A 46-year-old Nigerian woman, whose identity is kept private, took to the airwaves to share her painful reality: never having had a romantic relationship or sexual intimacy. Despite being financially stable and hardworking, she’d faced decades of rejection and hurt—often being teased as a “grandma.” In her own words:
“I am 46 years old. I have never had sex… three years ago, I noticed men began to see me as an aged woman… Children call me Grandma.”
Her vulnerability struck a nerve, triggering waves of empathy and support from listeners nationwide.
From Nigeria to the World: Marriage Proposals Roll In
In a follow-up episode, Hamzat disclosed that the emotional confession had prompted heartfelt responses—not just domestically, but internationally:
Sincere proposals came from hopeful suitors in Nigeria, as well as the United Kingdom and United States.
Hamzat extended a station invitation for her to return, hear the proposals, and potentially forge new connections in a controlled, respectful context.
