Odafe Jnr’s epic fail love story – The Yard

Odafe Jr. is the type of guy who doesn’t hold back when he likes a woman. Like your classic "intentional" Naija man, he knows the playbook—sweet words, thoughtful gifts, and grand gestures. His latest move? A stunning necklace for Funbi, his love interest. She loved it! Everything was going smoothly… until reality decided to humble him.

The family feud no one saw coming
Just when Odafe Jr. thought he was winning in love, a not-so-little problem popped up. Turns out that Funbi’s father had a history with his own dad, Chief Odafe. And not the friendly, "we’ll laugh about it later" kind. Funbi’s dad was part of a protest against Chief Odafe, the iron-fisted motor park chairman. Chief Odafe, being the no-nonsense, show-them-pepper type, decided the protesters needed a lesson. And by "lesson," he meant public humiliation.

Now, here’s where it gets crazy—Chief Odafe didn’t just punish Funbi’s dad; he gave his son the most awkward task in history. He asked Odafe Jnr to whip the father of the girl he was actively trying to impress. Let that sink in.

When love meets public embarrassment
Poor Odafe Jnr. He was stuck. Refuse his father’s order? Impossible. Disrespect Funbi’s dad in front of her? Also terrible. In the end, he picked the worst option—whipping his crush’s father in front of her. Just imagine Funbi’s face. Talk about a love story gone wrong!

Odafe Jr.’s epic lack of emotional intelligence
Now, common sense should have told Odafe Jnr to give Funbi some space after, you know, publicly flogging her dad. But no. This young man, dripping in audacity, marched straight to her house with flowers, hoping for a warm welcome.

Funbi, understandably, was NOT having it. The moment she saw him standing there, all lovey-dovey with his flowers, she did what any sensible woman would do—poured a whole bucket of water on him and chased him away!

So, is this love story over?
Can Odafe Jr. redeem himself, or is this romance officially drowned like his outfit that day? Find out on The Yard, airing weekdays at 8 PM on Africa Magic Showcase. One thing’s for sure—love in the motor park world is NOT for the faint of heart!
