Despite his mother’s warning and the controversy surrounding their union, the children of
Olusegun Obasanjo, former Nigerian president, and Kessington Adebutu,
popularly known as Baba Ijebu, had their traditional marriage on
Thursday.
Taiwo Obasanjo, wife of the ex-president, had said the wedding will lead to disaster and strange deaths in the country.
She had filed a suit at an Ikeja high court, seeking to stop the wedding
but Lateefat Okunnu, the presiding judge, dismissed the suit on the
grounds that the court lacked jurisdiction to hear it because Olujonwo,
33, is an adult.
The traditional marriage, which held at the Balmoral Hall of Federal
Palace Hotel in Lagos, was attended by politicians, business moguls, as
well as traditional rulers.
The white wedding of Tolulope Adebutu and Olujonwo Obasanjo is expected to take place on Saturday May 13th. More photos…
