We had told you all about the Igba Nkwu Nwanyi (Igbo Traditional
Wedding) a few weeks back. And we had said the white wedding was upcoming and
was going to hold in London. Yes it finally happened and it was on April 14,
2012.
Here is the update on the wedding. The white wedding between the
gorgeously beautiful Amaka, the daughter of Senator Ifeanyi Araraume, who was the ACN Candidate at the last
election in his home state of Imo State and Yomi Benson, one of the sons of the
late Otunba T.O.S Benson. We heard the white wedding was at a Church in Central
London, while the reception was at the Four Seasons Mayfair, Marylebone, London
very close to Wellington Arch, Buckingham Palace & St. James Park.
Heard the wedding was a very classy 'Naija Style ' wedding,
you know our weddings are always very glamorous, with loads and loads of family
members, friends and admirers in attendance all gaily dressed, trying at most
to outdo each other, in a subtle battle of who looks best or stands out the
best.
All the wedding pictures were taken by David Pullum Photography.
Here is the wedding in living colours.

Thanks for the pictures Aloba. All the best to them.
Beautiful wedding, beautiful couple, happy day.
Love it that it was kinda intimate, makes it exclusive and classy.
Four seasons hotel and central hotel are top choices for Naija A-class London weddings.
The pictures are fantastic. Thanks MM and kudos to David.
Like it that Amaka has a small frame and she wore a gown that looks like a wedding gown with the princess feel, and it's decent also.
This kind of London weddings are also superb. Reminds me of Tundun Abiola's London wedding.
Central London and Westend are far classier than other destination weddings.
Looking forward to the next Naija celebrity wedding in London. Aloba, no slack jor oh (in Jennifa's voice).
Now, Yomi is a bigger boy. Taiwo, Kehinde and mama will be proud of you.
Amaka, congrats and welcome to the club!
Can't see anything it's so dark....this happens to be one of the most boring blongs ever! The plenty grammer is totally unnessesary plus your stories are kinda stale
Blogs I mean
Gossip police...you right. loved the venue for Tundun's wedding looked nice and classy and a certain tall young man...hmmmm. yeah.
The pictures are rather dark
But you can tell its a gorge wedding...they are a stunning couple.
Tundun's wedding was at the Dorchester. The venue of all venues in London!!
@last anon, Mandarin Oriental, The Berkeley and Landmark are also the venues to hold A class weddings in London.
One of the Ibrus had his in one of the above named.
Mscheewww The Four Seasons is more upscale than the Dorchester. In any case life is not a competition, you sound like such a douche bag money miss road. At least this love is real, can we really say the same about Tundun's?
Just go to the photographers site. That's where Aloba got the pics from. I guess pics got distorted with Aloba try to crop for his site.
@anon 9.18am, how do you know which couple are really in love and which are not? Eyin aye! Real love or not, she's still in that marriage.
Old money and new money have different tastes when it comes to London hotel choices. All are 5 star hotels.
Love is real indeed yet you Amaka keep on abusing Naeto and Nicole. You are such an imbecile. Mind your business about Tundun. We will love to see you in 10 years time. Hoping that the family of TOS Benson won't have chased you away.
Na inferiority complex dey worry these Araraumes. Chai!
Claridges, The Connaught, The Langham, The Dorchester, The Ritz, Four Seasons in that order for Mayfair hotels.
The Stafford London, The Lanesborough, Sheraton Park Tower, Mandarin Oriental, The Capital Hotel, The Berkeley, 41 in that order for the best Knightsbridge Hotels.
In NW1 area, Landmark comes out tops.
wow, has this Amaka babe ever insulted naeto or nicole to any one of you. from what i hear her and naeto broke up almost 3 years ago and it wasnt a nasty breakup so why all the hate. you all need to calm down. instead of wishing her marriage breaks up, who does that? God help you all
I beg you please slow down on the hatorade... Ma pa ara re fa. Smdh. Hater oshi
LOL... Please don't get me started on Tundun and Atama. Their 411 na die. I comment my reserve sha.
Those Abiola girls on Maryam Adebisi's side are unlucky sha. First her younger sister Mrs Akande, now Tundun and forget Ayo's story. Tundun now lives in Ogun i read and her hubby lives where? Pray for married couples and all those who have fancy weddings.
Is tundun still with atama? I'm praying for them o
Does the so-called high-class/first class expensive venues matter as much as having an enduring, stable, loving home? I dont know why people are having headache by roling out hotel names. Who cares?
Awwww... Does it hurt you so bad that she has money??? Pele o, ur own will come... NOT. Hater oshi.
This young woman is happily married abeg... Leave her name out of ur mouth. No be toothpaste na. Shuo!. And pls leave my Nick Chu out of this Drama. Sweet innocent girl...save the drama that's NOT happening for yourself.
As for Tundun's business, bark all you want, its a matter of public knowledge and yes someone will blog soon and we will comment. So while you sit behind your computer waiting for Amy and Yomi's marriage in 10yrs (LOL... Idiot). Tundun's gist will entertain us.
Mrs Akande has nothing to worry about except Kayode's excessive drinking... He messes around but doesn't joke with his wife and kids. So park well on that gist, when they reconciled, it wasn't for show, its for real. So pls no comparison with Tundun's... That union was fake from the word go.
Anon April 28, 2012 6:15 PM; bloody gossip. Dishing it out yet praising Amaka. She's from an evil foundation and i won't even give her 10 years you hear. You must be a money miss road like her. Idiot x 10.
LOL... Why so bitter child??? Evil foundation? Smh @ u. What's with this money miss road BS you keep saying??? We can all help u with some money if its gonna help u stop being bitter.... Amaka and Yomi will be married a long ass time and God willing u will be alive to see.
I wonder why you have a problem with people that have money... Work hard and come over to this side (since your parents obviously didn't pave the way for you), maybe then you will stop being so bitter. Here's a big squishy hug for you mate.
Amaka welcome on board!
FYI, someone like me schooled in the UK... It's not only effing politicians who're rich. Some parents also work hard too and don't do rituals.
You should be on honeymoon not on blogosphere.
For now, take it easy with your legendary money and beauty talks. You're on your way to becoming a mother.
Once again, deep down in your heart, you would have preferred to marry an Ibo mzn. So where's the love with Yomi?????
Finally, no body attacks me on blogs... Tori plenty for me to dish out!!!!!!!
@ anon 9.41, you are a bitter fool!! how can you have so much hatred in you.. those words you said will follow you and every female in your family. you all will never stay in a marriage longer than 10 years. There is leaving comments and then there is pure jealousy and wickedness. Money miss road, evil foundation? are you God. Do you live with them. You are the bloody gossip, you IDIOT. Cheers to Amaka and Yomi, God will bless your marriage with love, happiness and lots of beautiful kids.
Oponu number 1, I know you will come back and read this. I'm not Amaka, if you have a personal vendetta with the lady, I dare you face her in person. Who really gives a shit if you schooled in jand? LMAO... Talk about complex. Don't even know where to begin with you... Like I said before, if you need the money, we will help you. Anyway sha ma para reh sho gbo. Little miss I schooled abroad... LMAO, you obviously couldn't buy any sense there. GTFOHWTBS.
Aproko thank you. You understand the evil foundation thing. From pure water seller in Benin to Senator in Abuja. Ask my Imo people why they rejected him as a Governorship candidate. Ndi miri. Their money is red = blood.
Just shut it trying to defend this newly married woman if not she will be chased away from here the same way she was chased away from LL.
For that anon, I dey laff oh! I laugh in Spanish!
You obviously did not make sense out of what I said... Akobatafunegbe, eru aye, omoojuorolari.
There won't be a next time you little blog commenter!
Lastly don't need blood money!!!
You people won't just mind your business. How many of you are married? Tundun and Atama have a fantastic marriage and if jealousy is your problem, go look for a good man to propose marriage to you. Jobless busybodies.
Tundun and Atama are divorced. Hahahahahahahaha.
