It was a wedding that attracted the who-is-who in business, media, social, corporate and political circles from Nigeria and beyond. Over 100 guests flew in from different parts of the world because of the party. There were a good number of friends of Segilola and her siblings as well as that of the groom who flew in from Dublin, US and London.

In fact, the memories created with the party will linger on for a long time. The Lagos Oriental Hotels’ Grand Ball Room venue of the party was transformed into small paradise with elaborate decorations.

Of course, that the wedding turned out hugely successful didn’t come to many as a big surprise. Wole Arisekola, the publisher of Street Journal and President, Association of Online Media Practitioners of Nigeria (AMPON), is known for his very powerful connections and philanthropic gestures. Little wonder that family, friends and associates stormed the party to support Wole Arisekola, the Mogaji Ajenigieye of Oje in Ibadan and his lovely wife, Chief (Mrs) Morenike Arisekola.

Apart from the superb decorations, the sumptuous meals and premium drinks and media paparazzi (over 50 media, both traditional and new media, covered the wedding ceremony), the party also witnessed performances from different cultural troupes including the famous chanter of Yoruba panegyric, Sulaiman Ayilara Aremu, popularly called Ajobiewe; the Ayanyemi traditional drummers group from Ibadan, among others.
