David was an intercessor in church and always prayed to God to bless him with a lover and one day Claudine showed up and a voice from nowhere told him that 'this is your suitable partner'. He had never been married before and he spends most of his time in church spreading the gospel.
"I prayed and fasted," he said.
Sharing her story, the young lady said after meeting, she never thought they would fall in love because she always saw him as a father.
Claudine said they were criticised over their age difference but that never changed her feelings towards him.

The lady said her parents never had a problem with her choice to settle with David.
