“YES!” — Simi Sanya is Engaged to Femi Dapson in a Proposal Straight Out of a Movie

Nigerian lifestyle influencer and content creator Simi Sanya is officially off the market; and she didn’t just say yes, she said YES with happy tears and Johnny Drille singing in the background. The media personality got engaged to her longtime partner, Femi Dapson, in one of the most romantic celebrity proposals of 2025, and social media has not stopped buzzing since.
Who is Femi Dapson?
Femi Dapson is not just Simi’s man — he’s a respected music and film producer known for his cinematic visuals and creative vision. He’s the founder of Nouvelle Films and has produced some of the most talked-about music videos in Nigeria, including Seyi Vibez’s “Ogo” ft. Tion Wayne, and official projects for AFCON 2024. Though he usually stays behind the camera, he made sure all the lights were on Simi for this big moment.
How They Met
Simi revealed that they met during NYSC camp, where they built a strong friendship before the sparks turned into romance. Their journey from corper crushes to forever lovers has made many on social media swoon, especially now that the love story has led to a ring.
How Long Have They Been Together?
While they kept their relationship relatively private, it’s clear they’ve been together for about two years. In fact, when someone once commented that their relationship wouldn’t last, Simi recently pulled up the receipt and responded:

The Proposal of All Proposals
Let’s talk about the proposal — because whew! It deserves its own movie.
Femi planned an intimate, dreamy setup with rose petals, candles, a glowing sign that read “Dear Simi, Would you be mine forever?”, and just when Simi was already in awe… Johnny Drille walked in singing “Hallelujah.” Yes, THE Johnny Drille, live and in person.
Femi, emotional but composed, dropped to one knee and said:
“Ive lost many opportunities in life which you know because I was shy to talk to people. But one opportunity I don’t want to miss out on is the opportunity to spend the rest of my life with you. Please, in the name of Jesus Christ, would you be my wife?”
Simi, visibly teary-eyed, didn’t hesitate:
“YES. Yes, I will marry you!”
Cue the applause, laughter, hugs, and a stunning diamond ring. Proposal? 10/10. Johnny Drille? Bonus points. Internet? Shaking.
Social Media Reaction
From influencers to fans and even other celebrities, everyone has been in their feelings over the proposal:
- “Johnny Drille performing at the proposal? This is not a boyfriend. This is a blessing.”
- “From NYSC camp to THIS? Love is sweet, oh, when money and effort enter.”
- “Simi Sanya’s engagement just raised the standard. Men, take notes!”
Others revisited the 2-year-old comment that doubted their relationship, now ironically serving as proof of growth, longevity, and quiet loyalty.
What’s Next?
While neither of them has announced a wedding date yet, fans are already anticipating what will likely be one of the most stylish and emotional celebrity weddings of the year. Between Simi’s flair and Femi’s creative eye, the aesthetics alone will be unmatched.
Final Word?
From camp friendship to diamond rings and Johnny Drille, Simi Sanya and Femi Dapson’s love story is the definition of intentional romance. Congratulations to the future Mr. & Mrs. Dapson — love surely looks good on you.
