The Nigerian social and political elite gathered to witness the union of Prince Lanre Onanuga and Fadekemi Abiru, daughter of Senator Mukhail Adetokunbo Abiru. The royal groom hails from the Anikilaya Ruling House of Ijebu Ode, while the bride comes from a family deeply rooted in politics and finance. Their wedding marks a blend of tradition, prestige, and modern influence.
The ceremony began with a Nikkai event held at Senator Abiru’s residence in Ikorodu, Lagos, attended by close family members, political dignitaries, and society leaders. The celebrations are set to continue on Lagos Island the following weekend, with engagement and white wedding events expected to be grand and stylish, reflecting the stature of both families.
Prince Lanre, son of businessman Omoba Olabode Onanuga, is also related to presidential adviser Omoba Bayo Onanuga, further linking him to national prominence. Fadekemi, known for her grace and poise, is a reflection of her father’s legacy as a respected senator and former bank executive.
The wedding is not only a personal milestone for the couple but also a symbolic alliance between two powerful Nigerian families. As preparations continue, the event is being hailed as one of the most notable social highlights of the year, bringing together royalty, politics, and high society in a celebration of love and unity.
