FOR FEAR OF POSSIBLE CLASH WITH EX WIFE, FEMI FANI KAYODE SHUNS DAUGHTER'S WEDDING

For fear of possible clash with his former wife and mother of his three children, Chief Femi Fani Kayode opted to stay out of his daughter Temitope's wedding. The former aviation minister made good his threat to stay away from the ceremony after his ex wife Yemisi Wada threatened not to recognise him if he should attend. Temitope is the daughter between FFK and Yemisi Wada an NOG operator.

Recalled that, Fani-Kayode, had earlier stayed away from his daughter's introduction with Bashorun J.K. Randle's son Jaiye, on January 22, 2015 and again this.

Her mother, the elegant Yemisi Wada, 50, also wore Emmanuel Ungaro Fabric from Joel and Son, laced with swarovski crystals in peach and was all smiles for the special occasion, graced by her husband Dahiru Wada, and many dignitaries. Their makeup was by Banke Meshida-Lawal of BM|Pro, who also captured them in their bubbly element before Temi tied the knot.

However with the absence of Fani-Kayode, Dahiru Wada, Temitope's stepfather took the place of the bride’s father. Dahiru is the son of Inua Wada, a one-time minister in the First Republic.
