Patrick grew up in Lagos, Nigeria. He first studied Microbiology, earning a BSc, and went on to complete a Postgraduate Diploma in Forensic Science and an MSc in Cell Biology. After several years working as a researcher at the National Institute of Medical Research, he decided to take a new direction in his career.
He returned to university to complete an MSc in Information Technology with a focus on Data Analytics at the University of West Scotland. Today, Patrick is a certified Data Analyst and is also a professionally trained photographer. He now works in the operations team of the NHS, ensuring that the hospitals runs smoothly from behind the scenes.
Our Relationship
Patrick and Erhun met in 2023 at Unilag, completely by chance. It was love at first sight for Patrick, so he asked for Erhun’s Instagram handle, and that was the start of their story.
Patrick would consistently comment on Erhun’s posts and send random messages just to check in. It wasn’t until a year later that Patrick and Erhun went on their first official date and saw each other in person, once again. Since then, life has been smooth sailing, filled with laughter, adventures, and a lot of love.
Around Valentine’s Day, Patrick took Erhun on a trip to Portugal. It was after that trip that he proposed with her dream diamond ring, beginning the next chapter of their lives together. They are now set to be legally wed on the 15th of August 2026!!
