Uzodimma confirmed the development in a post shared on his Facebook page, sighted by TheTalk.NG on Sunday.

The Imo governor congratulated the newlyweds and prayed for their union to be fruitful.

He wrote:

“Every parent cherishes their child’s wedding day, seeing it as a culmination of love, hope and the start of a new family journey. This was the expression on the face of H.E. Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu and the wife @jokesanwoolu, as my wife Chioma Uzodimma and I joined them for the Holy Matrimony of their daughter, Modupe Sanwo-Olu & Oladele Johnson.

“It was a moment of profound significance, marking the union of two hearts and two families, and I extended heartfelt congratulations and prayers to Governor Sanwo-Olu and his wife.

“May the love between Modupe and Oladele be a source of strength, guiding them through life’s journey with grace and abundance of blessings of a union.”

Sanwo-Olu, others celebrate Tinubu on his 72nd birthday

In another development, TheTalk.NG reported earlier that celebratory messages continue to pour in for President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu as he marks 72 years.

This is the first time Tinubu will be celebrating his birthday as Nigeria’s president. And interestingly, the date coincides with Good Friday in 2024, making it a double celebration for him.

As expected, most of the goodwill messages are from top Nigerian leaders in political circles like governors, former presidents and others.

Sanwo-Olu noted in his message that Tinubu’s financial wizardry and economic intellect, which he put to good use as the governor of Lagos have taken the state to a greater height.
