A UK-based lady has packed her bags and moved back to Nigeria to start life afresh with a man she met on social media seven years ago.
In a video shared by @beingsally1 on TikTok, she documented her journey from boarding her flight out of the UK to the emotional moment she reunited with her Nigerian lover-turned-husband.
In her words, she said:
“Packed my bags back to Nigeria to start life afresh with the man I met on social media seven years ago. This is home, this is whom I yearn for, and I am glad that the journey to forever has begun. Seven years as friends and forever as partners!”
In her comment section, she revealed that she has no plans to return to the UK and has embraced her new identity as a wife, even celebrating a traditional wedding and proudly calling herself Mrs. Salome Efe.
Her bold, emotional, and hopeful story has sparked reactions online, highlighting a modern romance that shows how love and conviction can sometimes bring people home.
A commentator wrote, “I’d do the same too… Congratulations!” while another asked, “Are you serious? Why would you leave a whole abroad to Naija all in the name of marriage?”
A UK-based life left behind, a social-media connection turned real, and a new beginning under the Nigerian sun.
