The lavish event took place on Saturday, November 8, 2014, and everybody who is anybody in Nigeria attended - from politicians to socialites, to entertainers - it was the kind of stuff fairytales were made of!
According to some reports, at least fifteen private jets were sent to Lagos to pick up some of the wedding guests.
Among the notable personalities who attended the party are: the Esama of Benin, Chief Gabriel Igbinedion; Edo State governor, Adams Oshiomhole; CAN President, Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor; former Foreign Affairs Minister, Chief Tom Ikimi; wife of former Lagos State governor, Senator (Mrs) Oluremi Tinubu; CEO of Capital Oil, Ifeanyi Uba; son of late Chief M.K.O Abiola, Kola Abiola; musicians, Omawunmi and Davido alongside the HKN crew; as well as some Nollywood stars including Osas Ighodaro.
