Ex-President Obasanjo and the father of the bride, Sir Kessington Adebutu, promoter of Premier Lotto known as “Baba Ijebu” are respondents to the suit.
Mrs Obasanjo, who is the twin sister of Chief Kenny Martins, the former Coordinator of the Police Equipment Fund, is seeking a postponement of the wedding of her son, Olujonwo to Tope Adebutu scheduled for May 11 and May 12.
She wants the wedding to be fixed for a date after June 1.
Olujonwo and Tope had an elaborate introduction on Dec. 17, 2016 with the social media awash with photographs of the event.
Obasanjo, among others, is seeking a court declaration that as the mother of the groom, she had the rights to take part in the deliberations, decisions and activities leading to the forthcoming ceremony.
According to her, wedding invitations have been sent out and she has been excluded from the preparations for the ceremonies.
She said she also received prophesies and warnings from men of God to the effect that Olujonwo, her son who turns 34 on June 1, should not do or be involved in any elaborate celebration before his birthday.
The woman wants the court to compel Adebutu and Obasanjo to shift the wedding to a date after June 1 after she had appealed to Adebutu and Mrs Rosemary Dacosta, the mother of the bride, Tope Adebutu, the bride-to-be as well as Chief Kenny Martins.
Justice Lateefa Okunnu has fixed April 10 for hearing of the suit no. ID/262FPM/2017.

Rich people problems!!!! Court ke, how will your son feel ?
DeleteWhat did I just read?
ReplyDeleteYoruba demons, evil mother inlaw na so e dey start. Please go and marry your son.
Deletewow this is deep. Guten Tag Stella :)
ReplyDeleteWen money is available, u cnt talk anyhow eben to ur own son again. D court does d talking!
ReplyDeleteHumm why communicate this via the court when it's a simple family matter that you all can deliberate on? I guess OBJ is giving her a tough time. Then this goes to show that this woman doesn't have a cordial relationship with her son, cos she could have convinced him and he'll tell his father and wife's family what he wants na. Obviously, OBJ and son are shutting her out of the whole thing. This is embarrassing to the entire family.
ReplyDeleteOBJ why na? Every mother's pride is to be a part of their child's celebration, regardless of whether father and mother are no longer together. Pls don't deprive this woman that joy she yearns badly. Na wa
This woman should talk truth abeg. She doesn't want her son marrying Tope. I can't say I blame her.
DeleteI know the parties involved but let me keep it to my self.
This woman is a tough cookie even obasanjo couldn't control.
This is matter of crase jam crase in the two mother's.
Yes. These days many ladies are dumped by men who claimed they got "prophecy" about their relationship . It's the latest dumping method ooo. Rubbish.

ReplyDeleteNkan nbe
ReplyDeleteNa wah. Some prophet somewhere has that woman wrapped around his little finger. Oh Africans with their fetish beliefs. As a Christian what happens to pleading the blood of Jesus on your son and cancel every negative pronouncements; tear every satanic calender prepared for your son. Then decree and declare as the mother who carried him in your womb, by the grace of God that you birthed that boy, by the power of God that created him, that your son will live way past that 34th birthday into a very ripe old age. That as Abraham did not bury Isaac, then you will not bury your son. In Jesus name, amin.
ReplyDeleteAnon you are assuming she is a Christian and a prayer warrior. I am sure its one babalawo that told her sef, or one of those woli
DeleteOrisirisi.
