CARNIVAL IN IGBERE AT EZINNE & KELECHI'S IGBA NKWU NWANYI (IGBO TRADITIONAL WEDDING)

KELS & EZINNE

DANCING TIME...........

1ST OUTFIT

It was an unprecedented carnival sort of when the Chairman & CEO of Nepal Oil & Gas, Elder Ekeoma Ekeoma and his delightsome wife Ngozi Ekeoma hosted everyone at their first daughter's Igba Nkwu Nwanyi last weekend in Igbere, Bende LGA of Abia State. 


From the Owerri Airport has you land, everyone knew something major was happening somewhere in town, there were several Toyota Hiace buses owned by the Young Shall Grow Transport company ready on ground to convey most of the guests landing from all over, just confirm you were here for the Ekeomas or the Anyasos, then you were immediately given the royal treatment, off you go in the air-conditioned buses for the 1 and half hour journey to Igbere. In preparation for the many guests coming to town the families involved had booked all the hotels & guest houses for their guests, so as you land you get taken to your place. Truth be told it was a massive event. 

By the time we arrived at the expansive country home of Elder Ekeoma & Ngozi, you could  see very clearly that preparation had been done to receive a colossal number of guests. The place was superbly decorated and gift bags containing bags of rice and other gifts were already placed on each chair ready to be picked up by the guests. Because Ezinne is Chima Anyaso's niece and Kelechi the groom his friend, he  put in so much effort to make sure all things were on ground to host all his hundreds of friends and other guests that were coming to celebrate him and his family. 

By like 2pm the traditional wedding ceremony began, the master of ceremony was the incredible Okey Bakassi, who was dressed like an Honourable member of the House of Assembly, in his resource control outfit, atop a beautiful pair of suede shoes, as usual he was on the top of his game, dishing out jokes and instructions with authority and great aplomb, to the delight of all. 

Kelechi the groom is a very handsome guy, much to the delight of all that were at the venue, we are sure many of the single ladies at the event would have loved to have him as theirs, Ezinne also,  is young nubile beauty, who could have won a beauty contest any day, were she to have been taller. The first to arrive as tradition dictates was Kelechi and he came with many of his friends in tow, he was welcomed to the occasion by Chima Anyaso, thereafter he was received by the family. Later on the superbly gorgeous Ezinne was called out, and she came out in her tradition outfit with native beads adorning her body looking every inch like a Princess, she was in the midst of her many gorgeous friends who all wore sunflower yellow outfits, sown in very may stylish ways. They equally looking gorgeous and the bride were a delight to watch as they danced in, to Ezinne's favourite song. 

Thereafter all that tradition dictated to be done was done, the sharing of kolanuts etc. Ezinne was told to go find her husband, something she went away to do with aplomb and thereafter both were joined together according to the Igbo's native law & custom. The drama and display of culture was a beauty to behold and even be a part of. 

It was a gathering of the movers and shakers of the Eastern parts of Nigeria mixed with guests from many other parts, some of those we saw were the likes of the former Governor of Abia State, Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu, billionaire mogul & owner of Ibeto Groups of Companies, Clement Ibeto, Senator Andy Uba, Professor Anya O. Anya, Senator Joy Emordi, Dr. Alex Otti MD/CEO of Diamond Bank, Kalu Idika Kalu- Former federal Minister for Finance, Charles Odunukwe, a Special Adviser to the President of Nigeria, Nneka Onyeali-Ikpe- the Chairperson of Fleet Technologies Ltd & ED of Enterprise Bank, Hon. Chinenye Ukeaje, Dimgba Igwe, Ahmad Damcida, Dada Awosika, Kunle Robert, Sir J.I.A Arumemi-Ikhide, Chairman of Arik Air, Princess Mrs. Nzeribe, Chief Kalu Ogbonna, Eze Uche I.C Dimgba, Dr. Uche Ogah, President Masters Energy Oil & Gas Ltd, Uju Ifejika and very many others.

We were on ground to cover the beautiful event for your viewing pleasure. The upcoming white wedding we hear is set for Saturday, August 9, 2014 in Lagos at the Oriental Hotel, on the Island, that is sure going to be another superlative occasion.

The hype that had followed this nuptial was something else. Did it live up to expectations, sure it did. The drama and all that followed it was worth the while. Many from Nigeria graced the occasion and added the flair & garnish to it all. 


5 star Armani Hotel was the center of attraction that day. It was also like Olakunbi Oyelese was the designer of choice for many of the guests that were there. Truth be told, the hunk himself, Tunji looked super dapper, that outfit of his choice fitted him to a t. We have no comment whatsoever concerning the bride's gown, it was her choice so any which let her have her fun. 

Everyone who went commended the organization of the wedding, every thing was in the right place and at the right time, you can't fault the organization however sad you are. Which is one of the reasons many love to do destination wedding, another reason is that you cannot just attend, without proper invites. In fact someone exclaimed loudly that it was the best organized wedding she had been to, and she's gone to a couple.

So in this post no new stories, gist or gossip. We are just doing a photo speak. ENJOY!!!!!!

Ain't she Hot?

ADIEU AMAKA IGWE!!!

You all already know that one of Nigeria's best in the Nollywood industry has passed on. It was due to complications arising from an Asthma attack. She was age 51 years old and had died in Enugu, the Eastern part of Nigeria, where she had gone with her husband, on Monday, April 28, 2014. 

Encomiums from far and wide (most especially from the Nollywood world, which she bestrode like a colossus) have been pouring in all day since her untimely death was confirmed. The Nollywood's outpouring of grief has been unprecedented. Madam was the brain behind such great television series like Fuji House of Commotion and CheckMate and Rattlesnake was one of her films.  

She owns Top Radio FM & BoBTV expo amongst her several business ventures.

She's survived by her mom, her husband of 21 years and 3 kids. May the soul of the dearly departed rest in peace!!!

POPULAR CHURCH'S 4.8 BILLION DEVELOPS WINGS & DISAPPEARS. EVERYONE ORDERED TO KEEP QUIET!!!

How the fraud worth a colossal 4.8 Billion Naira was successfully executed is still baffling. Especially considering the amount involved and also because of the church involved, everyone has been ordered or instructed to keep mum. The aftermath of it was a curse placed on all Pastors in the fold who steals or defraud.

The actual act involved 4 Pastors of the very popular church and a bank manager of a very popular ''new generation bank'', where the MD was recently promoted.

Apparently the 4 pastors were able to come across the sort code and other information about the church accounts, and through their knowledge and the connivance of a willing bank manager were able to perpetrate their dastardly act successfully to the tune of 4.8 Billion Naira.

After the act had been committed and the colossal amount discovered, 3 out of the Pastors involved developed wings on their feet and absconded, while only one was caught and also the bank manager involved. Upon interrogation the bank manager not in any way remorseful at all, and not flinching only claimed to have done his job, because apparently the pastors were able to convince him using the recorded voice of the church overseer to give instructions to make payments (initiate transfers).

So because of the way and manner the act was committed, and also because of the ease involved in how the fraud was committed and the colossal amount involved, the church head had to give strict instructions that the matter be kept hush-hush.

HADIZA & OLAMIJU ALAO-AKALA

GORGEOUS HADIZA

GORGEOUS COUPLE

FLAWLESS HADIZA

NDIDI AKPURU

TULIE OLAONIPEKUN

Just like we had expected, it (the wedding) lived up to the hype, billing that heralded it. What less can one expect when 2 juggernauts (families) come together, that is talking about the Okoyas & the Alao-Akalas.

Sunday, April 20, 2014 was the d-day. The very expansive compound (Olorunisola Estate) of the Okoyas was the convergence point. In attendance were many of the A-class people that makes event happen. Men!!!Truth be told loads and loads of gorgeous damsels dotted everywhere. Remember that the groom, Olamiju is the heir apparent to the former Governor of Oyo State, Bashorun Christopher Adebayo Alao-Akala (the kingpin of Ogbomosho), while Hadiza Raisa Okoya is perhaps one of the most brilliant and most gorgeous daughters of Chief Razak Akanni Okoya. 

So the wedding party was superlative in every way one can look at it. Some of those we saw at the occasion were the likes of HRM Oba Dr. Adedapo Tejuosho, Osile Oke Ona Egba, Chief Molade Okoya Thomas, Otunba Subomi Balogun & his Erelu, Pelebo Banigo, Senator Gbenga Ashafa, Dame Abimbola Fashola, Adejoke Orelope Adefulire, Otunba Adekunle Ojora, Justice Oguntade, Gbenga Daniel, Musiliu Obanikoro, Nkiri Anumudu, Teddy Shine, Omowunmi Akinnifesi, Hon. Abike Dabiri Erewa, Dammy Krane, Abiola Atanda, Florence Ita-Giwa, Shina Peller, Tonto Dikeh, Wizkid and very many others. 

On the bandstand at occasions like this was the one & only KSA King Sunny Ade, who did justice to the occasion, the man sure knows how rouse the passion of the wealthy. The bride and groom looked gloriously dashing in their wedding outfits as was expected. Hadiza is a beauty queen any day, anywhere. We totally love the package, everything was on point and guests, especially the much younger crowd all looked super. It was obvious that many made the effort to stand out even in their Aso-ebis (group-wear). 

All that makes parties, occasions and events like this stand out were in over abundance.

We had the event covered for your viewing pleasure. Check the pictures out.

A night at the hotel ranked 34th out 471 hotels in Dubai is about $500. 


The hall inside the Armani Hotel that would be used we hear sits 500 and to fill up those seats, it's like the whole of Nigeria has moved over to Dubai, at least judging by those already in Dubai with the couple. We heard that the gorgeous couple and their guests had a super fantastic time lastnite at the pre-wedding party at the Club Sensation inside the Crowne Plaza, Sheikh Zayed Road, Dubai. Sheikh Zayed Road where a lot of things happen in Dubai, some of the best hotels in the town are located on the street.
