Ezeigwe’s Daughter Holds Traditional Wedding In Abuja

Chief executive officer of Belanova Apartments and Suites, Dr. Louise Ezeigwe, yesterday gave out his daughter, Alexandra Kelechi Ezeigwe, in a vibrant traditional marriage ceremony that drew Abuja’s high society in large numbers.

The event attracted top business leaders, technocrats and members of the social elite who gathered to celebrate with the Ezeigwe family.

Kelechi, whose parents hail from Umowosha, Umunumo in Ehime, Imo State, tied the knot with her groom, Chukwuanugo Chukwusomebi Mojekwu from Akamili, Umudim in Nnewi, Anambra State. The groom is the son of Engineer Ejike and Engineer Louisa Mojekwu, while the bride’s mother is Mrs. Mnenna Ezeigwe.

In his brief remarks during the presentation of kola nuts, Dr. Ezeigwe said the ceremony would ordinarily have taken place in his hometown but was held in Abuja in line with residency reforms that allow Nigerians to conduct major rites where they have lived for many years.

The hotelier expressed delight with the impressive turnout, noting the presence of distinguished guests who savoured traditional and continental dishes.

The ceremony featured cultural performances from both families, with parents and relatives showcasing dances that highlighted their heritage.

Members of the Tennis Section of the IBB Golf and Country Club were among the prominent guests present, while renowned entrepreneur Chief Dan Ngerem chaired the ceremony which included the exchange of palm wine and other traditional rites.
