LAGOS, Nigeria — The atmosphere was filled with joy and elegance on Saturday, October 18, 2025, as families, friends, and dignitaries gathered at the 81 Division Officers’ Mess, Victoria Island, Lagos, to celebrate the wedding reception of Oluwaseun and Oluwatobi, children of Mr. Oluwafemi, and Mrs. Grace Adeyemi, as well as Dr (CP) Gbenga (rtd) and Mrs. Grace Ogunsakin.
Among the distinguished guests was Ambassador Olufemi Ajadi Oguntoyinbo, a renowned entrepreneur and chieftain of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP), who graced the occasion to honour the families and extend his heartfelt congratulations to the newlyweds.
Speaking with journalists shortly before his departure from the reception, Ambassador Ajadi described the ceremony as “a celebration of love, unity, and family values,” emphasizing the importance of marriage as the foundation of a peaceful society.
“Marriage is not just the union of two people but of two families,” Ajadi said. “I am particularly happy for Mr. Oluwafemi, the father of the groom, and all the families involved. They have raised fine children who today have started a new chapter of their lives in love and mutual respect.”
He further urged the couple to uphold commitment and communication in their home, describing them as “ambassadors of love in a generation that needs strong family examples.”
“My prayer for Oluwaseun and Oluwatobi,” Ajadi added, “is that God will bless their home with peace, wisdom, and enduring happiness. They should always support each other and build a home that reflects unity and love.”
The grand celebration, which followed the church wedding held at MFM TMPM Region 15, Victoria Island, witnessed an impressive turnout of guests from various walks of life, including clergy, security officials, business leaders, and well-wishers.
Guests commended both families for organizing a memorable event that blended tradition and modern elegance — from the Friday engagement at Onikan, to the classic reception at Victoria Island.
