Dafe is the ultimate best friend—the kind who values MJ's happiness above all, even if it means she ends up with someone else. His love for her runs deep, but the fear of losing their close friendship has kept him silent for years. He’s also unsure if she could ever see him as more than just a friend. Despite dropping subtle hints of his feelings over the years, MJ remains blissfully unaware, wrapped up in her own heartbreaks and missteps. When Dafe finally decides to act, it may already be too late, as MJ believes his sudden advances are influenced by Kanyamata.

Dafe is always sharp and composed, exuding a quiet confidence that women find irresistible. He walks the line between charming and nerdy, fully aware of who he is and what he wants—except when it comes to MJ. Around her, his usual clarity fades, leaving him uncertain and vulnerable. Though we don’t dive deep into his family life back in Delta State, Dafe’s words and actions reveal a man deeply connected to his roots, even as he navigates the temptations of Lagos’ fast-paced lifestyle.
