Nigerian health influencer Aproko Doctor has said that his wife, Amaka Egemba, did not match the physical qualities he once imagined he wanted in a partner.
Speaking in an interview, Aproko Doctor described the idea of having a rigid “spec” as overrated, explaining that the qualities that ultimately mattered to him went far beyond physical appearance.
He revealed that, before meeting his wife, he had envisioned someone who was already “made” and tall, partly because he had thought ahead about his future children.
However, he said his perspective changed as he got to know Amaka. According to him, what stood out most were her thoughts, the way she communicated, and, above all, her compassion and kindness toward other people.
He described his wife as someone who is transparent, genuine, and so kind that she would never intentionally hurt anyone.
His words in part …
“I think spec is completely overrated. How do I say this without, quote and unquote, Instablog please I’m begging you, I’m not insulting my wife, but if you had seen this beautiful woman as at the time when we had our first date, she did not look anything like my spec. She did not look like the spec I created in my head. I wanted someone who was just..already made, tall, and the reason I say tall is because of my children. I have to plan ahead for them. But for me, it was what she was saying, the things, her thought, but most importantly for me was her heart towards people. Amaka is the kind of person who is an open book. She’s the definition of ‘this person cannot hurt a fly’.
