Mrs. Taiwo
Obasanjo, wife of former President Olusegun Obasanjo, today filed a suit at an
Ikeja high court, seeking to stop the wedding of her son, Olujonwo, scheduled
for
May 11.
May 11.
Ex-President
Obasanjo and the father of the bride, Kessington Adebutu, promoter of premier
lotto known as ‘Baba Ijebu’ are respondents to the suit.
The woman, who
is the twin sister of Kenny Martins, former coordinator of the Police Equipment
Fund, is seeking a postponement of the wedding of her son. But why?
She wants the
wedding to be fixed for a date after June 1.
Olujonwo and
Tope had an elaborate introduction on December 17, 2016 with social media awash
with photographs of the event.
Taiwo, among others,
is seeking a court declaration that as the groom's mother, she had the rights
to take part in the deliberations, decisions and activities leading to the
forthcoming ceremony.
According to
her, wedding invitations have been sent out and she has been excluded from the
preparations for the ceremonies.
The mother
said she also received prophesies and warnings from men of God to the effect
that Olujonwo, her son who turns 34 on June 1, should not do or be involved in
any elaborate celebration before his birthday.
She wants the
court to compel Obasanjo and Adebutu to shift the wedding to a date after June
1.
She had
appealed to Adebutu and Rosemary Dacosta, mother of the bride, Tope Adebutu,
the bride-to-be as well as Kenny Martins.
Justice
Lateefa Okunnu has fixed April 10 for hearing of the suit. Serious family
matter.
