On Saturday 22nd October 2011, Nigerian inspirational gospel musician,
Obiora “Obiwon” Agu married his sweetheart, Nkechi Obioma Ezeife.
The couple wed at the All Souls Church in Lekki followed by a thrilling
and romantic reception at the Incubator in Victoria Island.
It was a beautiful day for the couple who met 4 years ago. Obiwon tells us
how he met his beautiful wife, Nkechi – “In July 2007 while I was still working
in the banking industry, I attended a client’s wedding but I got there so late and
most of the guests had left the reception. I basically wanted to ask someone where
the groom was, say hi to him and then leace. I saw my future wife from a distance
and decided I wouldn’t ask anyone else but her!
She took me to the groom and coicidentally bride was her sister. After
my exchanging pleasantries with the groom, I was still curious and asked
that he call Nkechi back so I could thank her. The groom sensing something
else quickly walked away when she came. We exchanged pleasantries and I
asked to cram her phone number so no one would see us exchanging digits.
After that, we exchanged texts constantly for the next few days. 3 days later,
we met up as I had some business around her area of residence and I told her
I wanted to marry her and start to know her better as a result. She was surprised
and eventually I had to wait for four years. I met her parents last year and
earlier this year, I proposed to my love, this time with an engagement ring
and she said YES“
On the 24th September 2011, Obiwon and Nkechi celebrated their
traditional wedding at her parents’ family house in Igboukwu,
Anambra State and then made it official during a registry
ceremony a few days later.
