Today, I'll be informing you guys about the celebrity couples in
Nigeria, I know some of are eager to scroll down, before then, we all know marriage
is not some hundred meter race nor is it five hundred, it comes with enormous
marathon of hurdles, but yet some of these 'Public Eye' found their differences
and tie the knot.
It is not some butter task to be prominent couple with
fantastic status in my country Nigeria, some Nigerian celebrities actually excel irrespective of career
and marital status, some of which are;
1. Ibrahim Suleiman and
Linda Ejiofor-Suleiman
Ibrahim Suleiman and Linda Ejiofor-Suleiman are popular Nollywood actor and actress, they've featured in many hit-break movies in Nigeria. Ibrahim and his beloved
wife had always been best buds until he surprisingly put a ring on it as quickly
as he could get her to say yes. Architect and actor, and actress, Linda got married
in November, 2018. The couple had a star studded and romantic wedding in Lagos,
Nigeria. Their wedding announcement came as a surprise to many Nigerians, because
they kept their relationship private.
**Davido and chioma
Avril
I know we
all hope to see these two tie the knot abi? Yeah.. me too. David Adeleke
and Chioma Avril have been dating for like forever. The lovebirds met at Backcock
University where Davido graduated from in 2015 and Chioma admitted in 2012. They've
had relationship issues in the past but nonetheless, Chioma is still the
assurance Davido want to pay 1 milli $ (one million dollars) bride price on.
Lol! We await the proposed 2020 wedding as spoken by Davido's elder brother
(Adewale Adeleke) at their 'introduction' as he took to his Instagram to congratulate
the couple.
2. Ebuka Obi-Uchendu and Cynthia Obi-Uchendu
On 15 April 2015
Ebuka, Nigeria media personality and the famous BBnaija host got engaged to the
fashion entrepreneur and HR manager, Cynthia Obianodo (who happen to be the daughter
of Chief Vincent Obianodo, owner of one of the top transport companies in Nigeria,
The Young Shall Grow Motors) in Lagos. The couple revealed that they met on twitter,
alarming right? They got married on 6 February 2016 in Abuja, and had a rollercoaster
honeymoon, travelling from Dubai, to Sentosa Island and Marina Bay in Singapore.
Sweet in the middle!
3. Olu Jacobs and Joke Silva
It is no doubt that this old couple are the amiable celebrity
couple in Nigeria.Jacobs, the veteran actor got married to Nollywood actress
Joke Silva since 1989, and are blessed with three children. Some questioned why
why his wife still bears her maiden name, Jacobs answered;
"She is her own individual. When I met her, she was an
actress known as Joke Silva so why should marrying me now deny her and her
audience her name. They have even written that we are separated and all sort of
stuff. When she is working, she is Joke Silva but she is Mrs. Joke Jacobs at
home"
Just like every
couple, especially the ones in the same industry, Olu and Joke have been able
to curb any rising issues about their relationship. I can perceive true
affection between these folks.
4. Adesua Etomi W and Banky W
The veterans couple married in 2017, Banky W disclosed that
they began dating after he slid into Adesua’s Dm on Instagram in 2015, according
to him, he never planned to date or marry anyone from the entertainment
industry but got star struck after he realised Adesua was spiritually-filled
and ‘different from other Nollywood actresses, also Adesua said that she wasn’t
looking out to date or marry anyone in the entertainment industry, She added,
“We are pretty much on the same page because we know what we both want, the
kind of family we want. I keep emphasising about the importance of memories. It
wasn’t just about us getting married; it was about sharing our experience with
other people. I’m glad it came to pass. I know without a shadow of doubt he’s
for me, I was more excited God gave me this person after so many months,” she
said.

Even Ezra Music Studio, by the time they shot the “African Queen” video in
2004. That was when 2Face announced in an interview that they were together.

zill. The father of the world proposed to Annie on Valentine’s Day in 2012 at

citing antagonistic differences. Nevertheless, Funke gave a second chance to
love when she tied the knot with the Nigerian rapper Abdul Rasheed Bello best-known
