MORE PICTURES FROM PETER 'PSQUARE' OKOYE AND LOLA OMOTAYO'S TRADITIONAL WEDDING CEREMONY

Still on Peter Okoye and Lola Omotayo’s talk-of-the-town wedding. Promised to send in more pictures. Other celebrities spotted at the event include Dr Sid, Don Jazzy, Mike Ezuruonye, Tiwa Savage, Victor Osuagwu, Susan Peters etc. Yes, Lest I forget, Lola wore three outfits on her big day, two traditional attires and one shimmering green gown. And she looked fabulous in them.

One celebrity who tweeted about his inability to fly into the country to attend the party was D’banj, he wished he had a private jet, “God go do am”. He concluded. Psquare’s elder bro, Jude Okoye was surprisingly and (maybe) unavoidably absent at the event, he had a studio session with Wizkid. I’m sure Peter understands.
