According to a report by Ekekeee and Punch, Tunde is one of Jimi Agabaje's cousins while Sharon is the daughter of an ex-Governor from South South region of Nigeria.

It was further reported that Tunde had embarked on the mission to trek to Zaria on October 2, 2016 to impress Sharon, who currently lives in the United States of America and considers him a stalker.

And on October 21, 2016, Tunde arrived Zaria where he was reportedly received on Friday October 21 by the Chief Security Officer of Ahmadu Bello University (ABU) Zaria, Colonel J.K.Tukur.

When contacted, Sharon had reportedly denied having any relationship with Tunde aside meeting him at a church's youth ministry in Lagos.

Sharon considered Tunde a mere stalker saying she warned him against the journey saying he's mentally unstable.

In her words: “He later found out where I lived and came to my house. My mum warned him to leave me alone, but he refused.

“I changed my phone number and moved to the US, but I don’t know how he got my contact. I have stopped picking calls from Nigeria because of him.

“This guy is mentally unstable, because how can you still be stalking a woman who has turned you down for six years?”she querried.

However, Tunde feels otherwise saying he met Sharon at an eatery in Ikoyi in 2010 and has tried wooing her to no avail.

Narrating his story, Tunde said: “I was with my friends sometime in 2010 and while we were discussing about ladies, I said I wished God would just show me my wife anytime soon."

Continuing, he said: “About five minutes later, we were hungry and I went to get food on Awolowo Road. It was my first day at that eatery. I was waiting to be served when she walked in. Coincidentally, that day was also her first day there. I observed that there was a love image at the back of the trousers she put on.

“She approached me and asked what she could buy and I advised her. We later exchanged contacts and became friends. That was how my love for her started growing. We met several times afterwards."

On why he chose to trek to Zaria from Lagos to prove his love to Sharon, Tunde said: “I chose to trek to Zaria because her parents dated for six years in ABU, Zaria, before they got married. I didn’t let my parents know and to ensure I was not disturbed, I changed my SIM card. I took a tracker along with me to monitor my movements. I never took a bus at any time. It was a tough task and I even collapsed some of the times. I took off from Ketu on October 2 and arrived in Zaria on Thursday, October 20, around 4.15pm.

“I have no regret for what I have done. I have proved my love for her, even though she didn’t reciprocate my feeling. I believe even if she gets married to another person, nobody will ever be able to do what I did for her,” Agbaje added.

Tunde, it was also reported, was taken to a hospital where he was treated for the injuries he sustained during the trek, which was monitored by a GPS tracker.
