Only those who are calm and extremely patient can extract milk from a Lioness.
Onisuuru lo le fun wàrà kiniun.

When you see a woman enjoying largesse from her husband, she has definitely endured and tolerated many stages with the man.
She has paid her price.

Often times, i overheard people asking;
“How do you cope with him” ?
You always replied with a smile that;
“He is a Loving and Responsible husband”.
Amotekun lo le ş’aya Ękun.
Only a Lioness can manage a Lion.

While celebrating your day with you today, I equally want to appreciate your partnership and loyalty in our journey through this world.
Your Endurance and Tolerance.
You overlooked many things that have broken so many Marriages.
You forgive my Excesses and ignored my stupidity.
You smiled at my Shortcomings and cover me with robe of Honour.
FOLASHADE ASHABI, YOU ARE A GOOD WIFE.
