AMAZING WHEN MBGN QUEENS GET HITCHED ON THE SAME DAY

By Kemi Lawal

November 9th may not have held any significant meaning for us but the same cannot be said for the pair of Chinenye Ochuba and Anita Uwagbale. The ex-beauty queens who in 2002 and 2004 respectively held sway as Most Beautiful Girl in Nigeria [MBGN] walked down the aisle in the arms of their lovers as they formalised their union at different venues.
Anita and Tom Isegohi, the Group Managing Director of Transnational Corporation of Nigeria (Transcorp), who already have a twenty month old son, had their marriage blessing administered by Paul Adefarasin, the founding pastor of House on the Rock Church at an opulent ceremony held at the high- status Civic Centre. The upscale party which followed had in attendance captains of industries led by the Director General of the Nigeria Stock Exchange, Mrs. Ndi Okereke-Onyiuke.

Chinenye’s nuptials did not attract less fan fare. The All Saints Anglican Church Surulere was brimming with well wishers who turned up gaily attired, reflecting the mood of the occasion. Standing side by side with her hubby, Adekunle Tajudeen Akinlade, they exchanged rings amidst nods of approval. The concluding leg of the ceremony staged at Regency Hall, Alausa reeked of opulence.
