My marriage… With Benjamin Ishaya

How did you meet your wife? Victor Ishaya met his wife, Rahab, through a mutual friend who eventually became his best man. Rahab was his friend's cousin and visited her aunt who lived in Victor's area. She also worshipped in the same church as Victor. What features did you like about her? Victor was immediately drawn to Rahab's respectful nature, her God-fearing attitude, disciplined upbringing, and most importantly, her devotion to Christianity.

How did you propose to her? Proposing to Rahab was simple, as her friend had already shared details about Victor with her, and she confirmed this with her aunt. The proposal was accepted with joy. To the glory of God, they courted for six years and got married on December 6, 2009. Financial stability was considered in their decision to marry.

Although Victor wasn't working when they got married, he managed a small business. The most memorable moment of their wedding day was during the church service when various singing groups performed praise songs, causing the congregation to dance and rejoice together. Being a husband and father has significantly transformed Victor's personality.

He now focuses more, doesn't rely on others, and feels protective of his family. As the head of the household, he aims for his family to look up to him. For young couples planning to marry, Victor advises them to pray, seek God's guidance, and choose a partner who complements them well. Marriage, he notes, is not a simple decision.
