Senator Mike Ajegbo took the broadcast industry by storm in the 90s when he floated MINAJ, a private television station. The ownership of the television station reportedly changed hands some years ago.

 Following his short-lived stint as a media entrepreneur, the Obosi, Anambra State-born entrepreneur joined the political bandwagon when he vied for and won a seat at the Senate during which he was relatively visible on the political arena.

Not necessarily an in-your-face kind of person, Senator Ajegbo, who leads a private life and rarely parties, was a guest at the wedding of  Ure and Emmanuel Akwiwu which held in Lagos.

A former member of the Super Eagles, Julius Aghahowa, like most of his peers, is a lover of luxury automobiles. The player, who was the rave of the moment some years ago, was seen in Lekki, Lagos, where he visited an eatery. He was behind the wheels of a G-Wagon Benz.

On his way out of the place, he was generous enough to dole out some cash to a fan, who hailed him, before he zoomed off in his jeep.

These days, he can be found fraternising with his ilk at events hosted by them.

Married to the former governor of Ekiti State, Ayo Fayose, Feyisetan ceased to be visible soon after her husband left the Ekiti Government House in 2006. The latter, who was well-known for her conservative looks and style, maintained a longstanding absence during which there were talks that she had taken up permanent residence abroad.

Her absence was only brought to a standstill recently when the former First Lady, who turned 50 this January, joined her husband’s electioneering campaign.

Not many will forget in a hurry the events that led to the exit of Clara Chime from the Government House in Enugu. Amid accusations and counter-accusations, the former First Lady, who suffered some health challenges and is now estranged from her husband, Sullivan Chime, was in the news last year when her predicament was made public.

Since the dust raised by the event settled, nobody seems to be aware of where Clara is; even though the belief in some quarters is that she is currently receiving treatment abroad.

Always referred to as ‘first love’, Oluremi Demola-Seriki is the first wife of former Minister of State for Interior and Defence, Mr. Demola Seriki. Now in her 50s, she is said to have met him as a 17-year-old and they got married a few years after. Their union is blessed with three lovely girls, who all schooled abroad.

Now a grandmother, Remi, who runs a jewellery shop in the Adeniran Ogunsanya Shopping mall, Surulere, Lagos, has been absent from the social radar. Though resident abroad, there was a time she was a constant in Lagos especially when her first daughter was nursing her second baby.

Fair-skinned with a good build, she does not hide the fact that she and her husband have never been separated, estranged or divorced. Not a few are waiting for the ever-radiant woman to be back in Nigeria and take the social scene with her impeccable fashion sense.

Her husband and political stalwart, Chief Abel Ubeku, was the first African to be appointed Managing Director and Chief Executive of Guinness Nigeria Plc in 1982.The latter passed away last March after a protracted illness.

Kayode Otufale is the wealthy founder of Super Screen Television and a real estate mogul, while his ex-wife, Biola Otufale, is a successful businesswoman in the real sense of the word. When the duo got married, many thought it was a match made in heaven. Only few had an inkling all was not well with the pair until they split and went their separate ways.

Interestingly, both of them have since carved a life without the other. While Biola is one of the regulars on the social scene, her former hubby and Ijebu-born high chief has also maintained an upbeat presence.

Since the conference kicked off last month, the likes of the Senators Gbemi Saraki; Florence Ita-Giwa and Daisy Danjuma are known to have outshone all other delegates. Consistent in their dressing, they have earned the admiration of all.

The stylish trio have been adjudged the best dressed judging by their choice of clothes and matching accessories.  Blessed with the wherewithal, they are usually the cynosure of eyes whenever they step into the National Judicial Institute, venue of the conference.

Whither Abiola Okoya?

Until she quit the limelight a few years ago, Abiola Okoya was a darling of the paparazzi. Perhaps the most popular of her father, Alhaji Rasaq Okoya’s children, she was well-known on and off the social scene.

Distinct in her ways as well as her fashion, she ceased to make the party rounds some years ago. She sustained her no-appearance stance until last year when she resumed socialising. Of late, her absence has become pronounced again.

For instance, she was nowhere in sight when her father renewed his marital vows with his youngest wife, Sade, last month. Also, last weekend, she was absent at the wedding of her younger sibling, which held in Lagos amid pomp.
