Femi Atilade’s shielded love life

$

Of a laudable pedigree, she is one of the hottest bachelorettes in town. Her mother, Justice Funmi Atilade is a member of the bench at the Lagos State Judiciary. Femi, who came into the limelight a few years ago, is also celebrated for her impeccable choice in clothes and accessories. Her dress code, more than anything, elicits attention wherever she goes.

In her early 30s, it is obvious Femi is shielding the identity of the man in her life. While her desirability is not in doubt, the identity of her ‘Prince Charming’ is unknown.

That Biola Alabi, Managing Director, Special Projects at M-net Africa, is a style connoisseur is like stating the obvious. A lover of western attire, she is known to have a rich wardrobe of clothes from the stables of renowned Nigerian and non-Nigerian designers.

Recently, she attended a birthday party in Lagos. Most people who expected her to turn up dressed in one of her many western designs were in for a surprise. She settled for a modernised buba and iro.

One of the most popular of the children of MKO Abiola, Tundun is one of a kind. Fashion savvy, the mother of two, who used to be married to Benue State-born Atama Attah, is evidently not weighed down by the ripples generated by Atama’s decision to remarry.

Those who are conversant with her ways attest to the fact that she is as fun-loving as ever. Her heightened presence on the social scene bears testimony to this. Another thing she has going for her is her slim silhouette that makes it difficult to believe she is a mother two times over.

The incumbent governor of Rivers State is proving to be one of the best dressed state chief executives. His predilection for designer apparels is fast coming to the front burner. Many will recollect that he rocked a Louis Vuitton suit to the 50th birthday party of Ruth Osime, Thisday Style editor. The graphic print blazer was from the designer’s 2013 Fall collection.

Last weekend, he put his sartorial edge on display again when he made an appearance at Paul and Anita Okoye’s wedding dressed in yet another masterpiece. This time, he settled for a floral patterned blazer from Gucci’s 2014 Spring collection.

Extremely pretty and light-skinned, Delphine Okoronkwo was quite unknown until unconfirmed talk insinuated that she is in a loving relationship with Pastor Chris Okotie of the Household of God Church fame.

Remember her? She took the entertainment scene by surprise when she became Nigeria’s first video jockey on the stable of MTV Base. A mother of one, Cynthia, who went by the alias Cvon, was a regular at entertainment events within and outside the country. Not even marriage and motherhood could slow her down.

However, keen observers have noticed that she has not been sighted at social events unlike what obtained in the past. Those who are in the know insinuate that she has relocated to the United States of America where she now resides with her family.

As the eldest son of the Ooni of Ife, Oba Okunade Sijuwade, it is almost impossible for Tokunbo to escape notice wherever he goes. Besides, he bears a striking resemblance to his father.

The latter, who is rarely in the news since his marital issues with Amina Dyeris became public knowledge, was a guest at a celebration in Lagos. Dressed in full traditional attire, he looked refreshed.

Meanwhile, people are still at a loss if he has truly reconciled with his wife after unconfirmed talks that the duo had mended fences.

Whither Tosin Dekalu?

In her 30s, Tosin Dekalu is a hardworking professional. A few years ago, she took over Lady Cobbler, her mother’s business.

Her strides in the over two-decade-year-old company further thrust her into the limelight and she hobnobbed with her ilk. At few years ago, word had it that she was in a sizzling romance with one of the sons of an Asaba, Delta State-born billionaire industrialist.

While there was no official confirmation from either party, the news fizzled out. However; Tosin has dropped out of circulation. Gone are the days when she graced functions dressed to the nines.

In her heyday, former minister of commerce, Bola Kuforiji-Olubi, was a wave-making professional. The reasons for this were not restricted to her exploits in the economic sector. Her elegant looks and in-depth knowledge of trends contributed to her fame.

Then, she easily made the list of Nigeria’s most stylish women. Two years shy of clocking 80, Kuforiji-Olubi, who was the first female chairman of  the United Bank for Africa, has not lost any of her allure even though she is ageing.

For a while, her presence at soirees hosted by her ilk witnessed a conspicuous decrease. But penultimate week, she took out time to attend the birthday party of Otunba Subomi Balogun. Styled in the most recent fashion, her gait bore the tell-tale signs of ageing.

He is the good-looking son of socialite, Lanre Ojora. Like his mother, Lanre Ojora, he courts the limelight. One of the most sought-after bachelors for many years, he bid bachelorhood goodbye last year when he wedded his longtime lover, Kemi Abayomi.

Following the well-celebrated wedding, Shola, who many years ago, was one of those who brought life to the social scene, has gone low-profile. Except for a few appearances at the elitist Lagos Polo Club, he has since been courting minimal attention.

Fondly called Pastor J, Jimmy Odukoya is the eldest son of Pastors Taiwo and Bimbo Odukoya of the Fountain of Life Church. Jimmy, who got married to Kemi Banjoko a liitle over a year ago, is one young man with a lot of charisma.

At his father’s church, where he is a pastor, those who have come in contact with him would attest to the fact that he is a chip off the old block. With interest in music, they say he and his wife command adequate attention in the church and this has nothing to do with the fact that he is the son of the founding pastor.

Remember him? He used to be married to the daughter of the late strongman of Kwara State politics, Dr.Olusola Saraki. Though his marriage to Senator Gbemi Saraki did not stand the test of time, it lasted several years during which she bore him children.

While no one can state categorically why the union failed, both have since charted separate courses. While Segun has since remarried, Gbemi is yet to tie the knot again.

Segun, who is believed to be a close ally of former Governor of Delta State, James Ibori, has been missing in action for a while now. Surprisingly, he recently showed face the Vanguard newspapers’ personality of the Year awards. To say he looked dashing was an understatement.

Northern-born billionaire businessman and Forbes-listed Africarichest man; Aliko Dangote is a gold fish with no hiding place. His presence at any occasion does not go unnoticed. Known to have several beautiful daughters, the same can be said of them too.

One of them, Fatima, who got married a few years ago at a lavish ceremony, is perhaps the most prominent of these girls.

At the Vanguard newspapers’ Personality of the Year awards, which held recently in Lekki, Lagos, Fatima and at least three of her sisters were guests. The ladies, who were dressed in true northern style, were the cynosure of eyes. Their corner became a Mecca of sorts for guests and excited paparazzi could not help but take their photographs.
