October 08, (THEWILL) – This past week, Segun Awolowo, the grandson of former nationalist and statesman, Chief Obafemi Awolowo, feted members of Nigeria’s high society as he hosted them to the classy wedding of his daughter, Yimika to her lover, Ifedotun Oluwadipe. It was a unification of three big society families – The Awolowos, the Foworas from the bride’s mother, Bola and the Folawiyos, led by Hajia Abba Folawiyo, the bride’s paternal grandmother. The event was held at Harbour Point, Lagos. While the coordination of the event was handled by master of ceremony and comedian, Tunde Adewale aka TeeA, the wedding was planned by Yewande Zacheaus’ event outfit, Zapphaire events. At some point during the ceremony, Segun felt the need to feel and move around freely, so he removed his ‘aso oke’ agbada and his leather shoes and opted for a canvas which gave him a spring to his steps. On the band stand to serenade guests were Veentage band and saxophonist, Abolaji Banjoko aka Beejay Sax. On hand to lend their support to the host were governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State; governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq of Kwara State; Niyi Adebayo, former Ekiti State Dolapo Osinbajo, former first lady, Bimbo Ashiru, chairman Odua Investment Company; Senator Lanre Tejuosho; Bola Shagaya, Chief Opral Benson, Chief Mrs Yewande Onileere, Senator Florence Ita Giwa etc.
