Maybe because of the many hoopla that attended the other parts of the wedding that had taken place before, the families were a lot more guarded as per this final installment, which took place in Abuja, the FCT.
We had reported in our earlier reports how this final installment was going to go. The mothers night preceded the main thing.
The main thing, which was the white wedding itself was at the Central Mosque in Abuja, where vows were exchanged amidst tight security on Friday, December 8, 2017, thereafter guests and all moved to the International Conference Centre Abuja, where the humongous reception took place, as was expected it was classy all the way, decent dressing and no "hoochie coochie lalala". As was expected also there was no alcohol whatsoever served, but food was in overabundance.
The entertainment factor was litt too as "Runtown and David Adeleke aka Davido" performed gleefully to everyone's delight, and later on Africa's best international act known to the world as "Wizkid" performed at the after party that had the younger crowd in attendance, and where alcohol later flowed as it was mainly the young crowd, who weren't held back by anything whatsoever.
In all, it was more like any other upscale wedding party that takes place everytime in Lagos and other parts of Nigeria. In attendance were many dignitaries, likes of Chief Olusegun Aremu Obasanjo our Ex-president, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, Femi Otedola, top Government functionaries and other bigwigs, chief of which was Madam Patience Jonathan, the former first lady of Nigeria.
More after the break.

Is the marriage arranged or is it a "love" relationship? I ask because, in all the pictures I've seen - be it the traditional etc., the man looks in all directions BUT in the direction of his bride. He also doesn't lock his fingers when they hold hands.
Picture with "Bride's dad, Senate President Dr. Bukola Saraki & guest" - the guest being the President of Sierra Leone, Ernest Koroma.
Are there better pictures where they smiled? Her dress and make up aged her.
Dame Pashe damned her hubby and went to the wedding. No loyalty.
Gbemi, Tope and Laolu don't hang out with their brother anymore. The fight must be very bitter.
I wish the couple well.
At Xoxo I thought I was the only one that noticed the groom's lack of interest. I didn't want to be called an hater reason why I didn't say anything about his body language. He wasn't in the moment as he looks like the marriage was being forced on him. Perhaps the bride was pregnant and her parents decided to do the wedding for her before the pregnancy shows because I expected him to look more cheerful as expected from a man marrying the love of his life. That is their cup of tea though.
this her wedding gown na wa.
BEE
Congrats to the saraki family and of course Adekunle! Bukola Saraki looking slim and fit!
Love weddings! Congrats to the latest couple in town!
Wow! Another wedding ???? Too much money! When are they coming to UK for the wedding part 5?????
Even with all the BIG boys in town, every where is still dry! *Deep sign! When can a babe catch a break!
I ask with you
Congrats to the saraki's again! I wonder if the groom's family are enjoying this never ending weddings! When is the honeymoon party?????
Mehn! Bukola Saraki is charming! Don't mind to have a date with him! So so charming! Met him at the event! Gosh! Loving up!
Which fight! Olaolu came for the wedding! Maybe Gbemi but definitely not Olaolu!
It seems the bride is pregnant! Not looking so beautiful compared to the previous events! The groom looks pissed! Guess he's wondering if this is his wedding or political party meeting!
The groom is fionnnnne! The bride???? Eh! Bleh! No hating!
Bukola Saraki!!!!!! I am loving you! Damn! Just want your 🍭 asap!
Hustler!😁😁😁😁😁😁. It's well
Liked what the mother of the bride wore! Classy wedding!
The Senate president, Bubu Saraki is a gentleman! Awwwwwwwww! Nice meeting you! He's not even in any social network! Smart guy though! I will get you some other time 😉! I understand, madam eyes! Hmmmmmmmmm!
The marriage wasn't arranged. Both parents didn't know each other prior to their children meeting. It's more like the groom isn't comfortable with the loud publicity and how bride's parents wish took over.
@Fan, I know Gbemi is tough but didn't expect kind Tope and a lil kind Olalu (as his side chics call him) to be this vengeful and not participate. But then their mother aunty Florence was in Abuja for it.
This type of discord will be passed on to the children. Chai!
Congrats to the latest couple in town! On another note! Why do women like a lot? A girl I met claimed celibacy yet found three different dildos in her apartment! So who is using the dildos? Her cat? Romeo? I'm done! I can't even compete with those dildos! So massive fa!
The groom is tired! He didn't bargain for all this! Poor chap! Maybe he's missing his side babe!
If the bride is pregnant, then that's great news for the groom to be cheerful! Is that the reason they didn't serve alcohol?
A babe will only catch a break when she starts using her brain to think of getting a job or start a business And not using her jazzed up , water running, blade marks vagina to think!
So so charming, you say! You better be careful! He's so fetish! Before you fuck him and damp all your bright 🌟! Be warned!
Anon 7:20! I came for the wedding post but your comment right here is one of the reasons I love the anonymous in this blog! Love this blog man!
No need for the insult! I guess the chunky looking Guy likes good food not necessarily junk food! Meanwhile, they need to reach Maje Ayida to help them in that department! They can afford him as their personal trainer!
That applies to Toyin and Bukola. 2 plain Jane people
Of course the bride look like her just there mother. Too dry to look at
I know!!'! The noise was just too much. In pray the marriage will last. The Groom parents wasn't even recognized. Another show off carnival wedding.
7.35am. Show some respect as that another woman's husband. Although he is not a Saint and as a Muslim he is entitled to 4 wives but that should be his choice and not having a THIRSTY woman make a wrong proposition to him in public. Get yourself together and make a name for yourself intellectually
At 7.32 am. HALLELUJAH. AMEN
11.32 AM. Go get a JOB. Those big boys you are talking about didn't have 2 heads so do get a job or establish a business to enrich you too. Make your yourself a rich woman too. And BTW, those rich big boys love to be with an equally rich woman too. They have respect for you and ready to spend their last dime on you when you make something of yourself
7.28 am I'm not sure if the bride is pregnant but one thing I know is that Bukola is very close to most of those big Alfa's and maybe they warned him that there shouldn't be alcohol at the wedding Can't point my finger to it but the wedding doesn't look festive and cheerful as expected a wedding to be, look bland and strange. Looks like a Political meetings though
Abi, very unnecessary of Gbemi and Tope. Family fight and one day it would be over. At least grandma Saraki was wise. Gbemi own is too much. Laolu was at abuja with his wife.
Bride was just tired. Who won’t be. Very lovely couple and very in love too. Young people are always overwhelmed by all these ceremonies. The discord should end please. We are all growing up everyday and our kids can see all these things. Not healthy at all. Wishing the couple a wonderful married life
Anon 7:20! Kill me now! 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁 Women and lies is like 5&6, fish and water!
@12:56,Muslims aren't allowed near alcohol you know? It's only in Nigeria (and maybe some African countries, certainlly not the Arabs)they openly consume alcohol; I guess he doesn't want to give out the wrong message.
That Mpho Laing was at this wedding following Ekua Abudu like a shadow. Still no gist on her? Issokay 😏

@ anon 12:56 True That and becasue he is a strong Muslim that’s why he refused to allow alcohol consumption at the daughters wedding. Even f he drinks or buys alcohol for friends or meetings, that’s to a close group. He can’t arrogantly encourage it especially becasue he wants albarka in the union. Much respect to him on that decision. He isn’t going to go against Allah’s saying just to score points as the best wedding of the year from people.
Aloba, you didn't carry Tony Anenih and Linda Edozien marriage coming up.? The latest gist in town
Why’s no one talking of the show down between madam itk maky benson and oby ohakim? I was even surprised oby dignified her with a response.
Aloba,you didn't carry Tony Anenih and Linda Edozien marriage coming up.? The latest gist in town
The bride asked for feferity wedding. The bride chose to do the wedding in Naija whilst her parents prefers she does a destination wedding but guess she likes the whole over the top
Tell us what happened
Maky ! Nah girl you let the side down. You had a full rant because ? You didn’t feel stupid ranting all that? Not good girl. Your insecurities came out 100%!
As for Oby- you could have kept it classy. No need for layman/ lawyer retort.
At the end of the day neither of you are doing anything earth shattering Abeg. All these resources are free, online...
Don’t let Instagram hype make you feel any type of way...
I have always been curious about that Mpho lady. What business exactly is she doing in Nigeria?
Waiting for Aloba to bring the gist here. Oby Ohakim is so dignified mehn.
Feferity bi bawo? ITK do you even know her? Or what was dished out to you on other blogs? Abeg keep quiet there. She’s a very reserved girl. She can’t change who she is. Pepperment too dey worry una. Wish them well and move on, so good things can happen to you too #side eye
Me sef I was about to ask o. How come nobody dey carry am.
Amaka fall my hand I wouldn't lie. There was no need to even reference oby thus giving her a platform. After she started explaining that was how I did fastest fingers and caught on the whole thing. I had no idea about projectbaby until she started explaining her rant.
Oby has no chills sha.
The does your child speak french comment by Amaka was NOT necessary and I think that was what turned oby's head. Wetin concern her son and you with your business. Very uncalled for.
As she was ranting I was just saying Amaka shut up o. No talk o. Let this thing die a natural death. Don't you have friends. You have more following than oby no go use your hand spoil your own market. No let this thing bring your leg out. See as oby just dusted her and signed it with her lawyer experience.
The truth is no one has a monopoly on early learning resources. The market is big enough for all. I expected both of them to have handled the whole thing better. All the fighting over text message was uncalled for. One of them should have just picked up the phone and handled it.
Please avoid texting things or putting anything in writing you don't want to hunt you later. Amaka's own was he say she say.
Oby had receipts! Always avoiding giving receipt to people especially when emotions are high.

what are you guys on about ??..kindly break down the gist for us who have no clue?? who is amaka ? who is oby?? why are the fighting?????
Amaka fell her hand badly. and even helped raise awareness for Oby's side hustle. Oby also went for the jugular going on about her corporate/legal career knowing amaka is a glorified jobless woman. aloba carry this gist oh. let us find out the source of amaka and yomi's money
Mpho is coded runs chick and she has been warned to keep off girlfriends while her stay in naija or else her sponsors will back off! So expect no tale from her ok!
Very dry gist abegi!
She has lots of female friends o. Ekua Abudu, Nanette, BKW, Onah....
Not surprised re runs. Always posting half naked pictures on her Instagram.
What money. Abeg. Do not be deceived by her show off. Leaching off Yomi’s trust fund
Akaka just one jobless person...as I was about to unfollow on Instagram she blocked me because i called her out
Good riddance ...she saved me a click
Correct Na real trust fund!!!!
Maky & Oby seem so bothered like smth is going on in their homes!!!!
The bride's stomach was as flat as a pancake
That Toyin's plain Jane look must be deliberate as a political wife. She goes for a polished look not a painted look. That her plain jane-ness out slays the slay queens. Very elegant woman.
Hope there's enough in the trust fund to keep them a float for a life time cuz he's known for spending on women, booze etc.
Anon 11 December 3:36AM. From your comment, it’s is clear you are cheap runs girl with very low self esteem. That woman Toyin is not ugly, I can’t call her beautiful but she’s got so much confiedence with the way she dresses and wears nude to almost no make up. And you can see she’s trained her daughter same way. It’s called CLASS, Please read my lips CLASSY! one the polished and affluent will understand what I mean and you are clearly nothing close to it.
I don’t know Toyin, Bukola Saraki so it’s fact, without any sentiment
I agree with you Anon 9:34pm and rightly said! I see her as a very elegant woman too and I admire her.
The funny thing about the noise of this Saraki wedding is that none of the so called noise is from the families. The families just held their ceremonies in their home towns and the nation's capital without any stunting on social media. All the noise has been from gbeborun noisemakers. The newlyweds look reserved, quiet, circumspect and close to each other with the way they are holding hands. Quite regal bearing IMHO.
My 2 cents, there is a difference between pretty and beautiful. Toyin and her daughter don't do pretty, they do subtle understated beauty that's apparently very appealing to men. Most men I know think they are stunning while women think they are plain. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
@anon 3:36am You are so pained, do you wear your wealth (or poverty) on your face? Kilode?
Mpho is a publisher. Her publication which is like a Lagos guide, can be seen in high end venues across Lagos. Eko Hotel for one.
