The families of former President Olusegun Obasanjo and
businessman, Chief Kessington Adebutu, have said that the wedding of their
children, Olujonwo and Tope, will hold as planned.
They note in a statement on Tuesday that the event slated
for May 11 and 13 would hold since a case instituted against it had been
decided in their favour.
Spokesman for both families, Princelyn Oduenyi, noted in the
statement, “With the recent decision of an Ikeja High Court (Family Division)
presided over by Justice Lateefa Okunnu, dismissing the suit filed by Mrs.
Taiwo Obasanjo seeking the postponement of the wedding between her son Olujonwo
and his fiancee Tope Adebutu, fixed for
11th and 13th of May 2017 to a later date, I have been mandated as the
spokesperson of both families to assure the general public, well-wishers, invited guests and the church
in particular that the wedding is still going to hold on the fixed dates.
“In dismissing the suit the Honourable Justice was very
clear and unambiguous, stating that the court incompetent to entertain such a
matter involving people whose age brackets are above 18, which is the limit of the children of a
marriage that the court has jurisdiction to adjudicate, as the gentleman whose wedding is in contest
is already 33years old and an adult.”
