While it is the norm to see men (and even some women) go on their knees to propose to their partners, it isn’t everyday one sees a woman go on both kneels to accept a proposal.

A Nigerian lady identified as Adaeze Gift Okolie recently got many people talking after she knelt down to accept a proposal.

Okolie who is a traditionalist and often refers to herself as a river goddess has explained why.

“You’re my king, that’s why I knelt for you to crown me your queen. So deep spiritually, I pray others will learn.”

Taking to her Facebook page to announce the good news, an excited Okolie described getting engaged as reaching the ‘semi finals’ and showered her man with accolades for choosing her above other ladies..

According to Okolie, her boyfriend is her king and this is the reason she knelt down for him to ‘crown her as his queen’. In the lengthy caption, she expressed that it was spiritual and she hoped others learn from her gesture.

She wrote:

“I have finally made it to ‘SEMI FINALS ‘Hmm am still in shocked because I never believed it.Chai am getting married to my best friend..don’t see me as a stupid person because I knelt down to accept his ring..he deserves it..After all the ups and down.

“Well truth be told , I won’t feel good with my daughters doing all these just for a ring, you both need each other! Congrats”

It comes as no surprise that Okolie has chosen to ‘worship’ her man due to the proposal.

Only some months ago, Okolie who is a traditionalist trended online for doing a Bible giveaway for her friends and followers on the platform

In a video, she explained that the Bible used to be hers back when she still practised Christianity. Okolie who also goes by the name Adaeze Ijemmili stated that she no longer believes in the ‘lie’.

Adaeze, who described herself as a river goddess and an antichrist, revealed that she thought of burning the holy book but didn’t out of respect for people who still believe in it.

Is it bad for a woman to propose to a man?
