The Cole family of Victoria Island, Lagos, has announced opposition to the recent marriage of their son, Taiwo, to actress and comedian, Wofai Ewa
The lovebirds had a traditional marriage rite in Ugep, Cross River State, and took to social media to share videos, and pictures of the event and those of pre-wedding.
The groom’s family in a statement issued by their patriarch, Kunle Cole, dissociated themselves from the union.
In it, they said they have no knowledge of the couple’s wedding, and more importantly it is without their consent.
The statement reads in part, “This serves to notify all acquaintances, family and friends that the Cole family of Victoria Island, Lagos, are not aware of any marriage ceremony of our son,Taiwo Olakitan Cole; neither did we grant permission nor support in this regard.
“As such, person(s) parading themselves as new members of the Cole heritage by virtue of this purported event, are not known nor accepted by the family. All publications and documents being circulated about this are to be disregarded.”
