A visible figure during former President Olusegun Obasanjo’s administration; you cannot miss Kemi Adewunmi in a crowd. She was a formidable member of the Lagos chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party. Though not a political office holder, there was no gainsaying the fact that she was a power broker. Sometimes ago, she was out of the social radar but bounced back.
Lately, the pretty politician sent text messages to friends and associates which served as invites to her 50th birthday thanksgiving mass. Held at the Holy Cross cathedral, Lagos, the gold themed event was a gathering of political bigwigs and the crème of society. Known never to host low profile shindigs, Adewunmi is said to have slated the latter part of the month for a proper party that will be much-talked-about.
Meanwhile, for the politician and her mother, Madam Bola, who also clocked 80 years earlier in the year, it has been a good time on the society scene. Both mother and daughter were sighted at the recent wedding of Prince Adetunji Adesida and they were dressed in the same aso ebi. It is an understatement to say they grooved! The turquoise blue themed wedding, which was hosted by the late Deji of Akure, Oba Adebiyi Adesida, had in attendance, many celebrities. It was the last public outing of the late monarch before his death recently.
