It was a spectacular gathering of the who-is-who of Nigeria. Although it was nearly marred. Check out all the details and more here.

Now that part 2 of the 3 part series has happened, it's now on to part 3, which would take place in Abuja the FCT. The Abuja edition would be a multi-day event like we had already stated in our earlier report. A part of the event is slated for the Yar Adua Centre in Abuja, while the main she-bang would be at the International Conference Centre Abuja. The mother's night/cultural reception (a collaboration between the 2 mothers) is set for Thursday, December 7, 2017 at "Royal Hall of the Dunes Centre, Aguiyi Ironsi Way, Wuse II Abuja".
With the benefit of hindsight now as per what had happened at the Eko Hotel and using that as foresight, all the Abuja events would be monitored and planned to a T to avoid further embarrassment of any kind.
The Lagos event like we had exclusively reported was nearly marred and panic had already set in, but for the frantic effort of the event centre technical team, who did all they could do to avoid a major disaster as light (Power) was unavailable for 5 hours prior to the event starting. Imagine that from 6am till much later there was a total blackout. Public power was unavailable and the Generators curiously went kaput also! Strange don't you think?
It was a scary situation at first, with people even already conjuring some unbelievable permutations, alleging sabotage! Sabotage for what and why? Thank God though, all that early troubles were nipped in the bud. And the traditional wedding and Engagement thereafter went like a breeze, without any other issue (s) whatsoever.
The event planners engaged, delivered a slamdunk! Security as expected was very tight as provided by both private and public security services.
So finally, Oluwatosin Halima Saraki, 25, first born child of Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki, the President of the Senate, Federal Republic of Nigeria and his wife, Toyin Saraki nee Ojora, President/Founder of Well-being Foundation Africa was joined traditional to Adeniyi Olatunde Olukoya, the son of Omooba Adebola Olukoya and his wife Olori Olatokunbo Olukoya.
Could less have been expected when the father of the bride is a political juggernaut from the ruling party-the APC and also when the maternal granddad of the bride, is a known boardroom guru and "a lord of the Lagos Social establishment" and also a "bonafide prince of Lagos", who has a legitimate right to the throne of Oba of Lagos, in the person of Otunba Adekunle Ojora, who is ably supported by the Matriach of the Ojora clan in the person of the Erelu Oodua herself, Erelu Ojuolape Ojora, her supreme gorgeousness.
The heavyweights of businesses, top Government functionaries, top echelon of the diplomatic corps, sprinkling of Governors and Ex-Governors, royalties of all colourations, political heavyweights and more littered the venue with their presence. It was colourful, it was upscale, it was an explosive gathering in a great way, in that though it was supposed to be a social gathering, but with great political undertones, which would guide some certain major decisions thereafter. Those who came and those who didn't either deliberately or otherwise would have been noted.
Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo GCON, came with his gorgeous wife, former President Chief Olusegun Aremu Obasanjo GCFR, came. Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Senator Remi Tinubu, his wife were present. Esama of Benin, Sir Gabriel Igbinedion, Osile Oke-Ona Egba, Oba Dr. Adedapo Tejuosho Karunwi III, Aliko Dangote, Abba Kyari, Chief Bisi Akande, Aremo Olusegun Osoba, Otunba Gbenga Daniel, Otunba Subomi Balogun, Senator Ken Nnamani, Ali Modu Sheriff,

Aloba the way you over praise and over worship these people, i do wonder if you have any more praise and worship left in your body for ELEDUMARE who is the only One that must be praised and worshipped. Respect human beings but learn to praise and worship God ONLY. I know a lot of these people and their character is so mean and horrible that they are not worth even the smallest atom of respect.
ReplyDeleteIt's all oju aye, to catch the attention of blog visitors and also not loose access to them. He sure knows their characters and what they deserve, but then his blog must sell.
DeleteHello Miss/Mrs Witch it's not about worshipping any human, it's about knowing a job and doing it to your ability. A man's work is supposed to sell him or her, if the stories weren't well written you most definitely and certainly wouldn't come here to read.
ReplyDeleteIt terms of Eledumare, if that would refer to the actual God, it is a matter of the 2 people involved, the person and the God. Like they say God knows those who truly worships Him.
This is definitely aloba replying you. .tehhhhhhheeèeee and I know he won't post this comment..social climber that will never get to the top.
DeleteSocial climber that will never get to the top???? Anon 5:52pm! I'm not Alone but I will fight for him, you that wrote this will remain stagnant forever! If you're at the top now before 2018, you will drop below poverty! How dare you! You think it's only humans that come here to read post and comment? I will teach you a lesson! When two forces meet, the lesser force must bow for the higher force! 👀👀👀👀👀👀👀✍
DeleteAnon 5:22am! I beg you please! No vex! Na play oooo! I believe anon 5:52pm was messing with Aloba! This blog is fun filled! Thanks in advance 😉
DeleteAnon 2.02 i hear you. Feel free to grovel on the floor before your leaders and have them use your head for stool. Abi, Nkan ti eleda yin gba niyen.
ReplyDelete@Blair Witch that is his style. Sometimes I feel he's humouring them and being ironic. Just laugh at it.
ReplyDeleteThey made her up to look older than 25. Not flattering. Are there any pictures without these politicians? These are the usual faces at politicians kids weddings.
I like the metallic themed cake.
I've the same opinion as well. He's just making a jest of them.
DeleteI honestly wish they would all have been wiped out from the face of the planet. Very shameful that all the power be was at the party to get a dose of their own selfish dosage. Minister of Power was there smiling instead of covering his eyes with Shame. Nigeria is richer and famous than Ghana but Ghana is better run than this mess call Nigeria
ReplyDeleteSupported! Luv your comment!
DeleteThat's his job. Shamelessly praising looters and oppressors. I always wonder at the manner in which he praises all the people who have literally finished Nigeria.
ReplyDeleteHe's not praising them but mocking them! Let Aloba breathe please!
DeleteWith all the hype, money,famous people! The girl no fine at all! Just there! Enjoy for today cos tomorrow may not be yours! This message is for all politicians who looted and used the common peasant wealth to enrich themselves! I'm not happy with Nigeria as a whole!
ReplyDeletePlease don't wish them death, God has a way of dealing with them. Their children are paying for their crimes already. Ko si asegbe, asepamo lo wa. God can never be mocked. You must reap what you sow.
ReplyDeletelike someone said the children even some fathers are already paying for their sins, but wealthy man packaging won't let you see it.Is it the one sleeping with their daughters or the man with a massive hernia between his legs, or the one with a wound on his leg that never heals or the one that a strange unseen being walks all over their house every midnight.
ReplyDeleteSome of these strange things I mentioned is afflicting many of the people featured in the last 5 stories aloba has published but make I no mention names lol those who know know 😁
