It was
glitz, glamour and a list of who-is-who in the country was in attendance as
Governor Adams Oshiomhole of Edo State, Friday, exchanged marital vows with his
heartthrob, former Miss Lara Fortes.
The governor and his bride
signed the dotted lines at a private marriage registry attended only by family
and a few friends at his Iyamho residence after which top dignitaries in the
country were led by the President-elect, Muhammadu Buhari, to the wedding
reception held at the People’s White Hall in the governor’s country home.
Among other top dignitaries who
also graced the ceremony were the Vice President-elect, Prof Yemi Osinbajo and
his wife Dolapo.
