Banky W's wedding did not outshine mine - Oritsefemi

Popular Nigerian music star Oritsefemi has come out to warn fans never to compare his own wedding that of his colleague, Banky W and Adesua. 

The celebrities got have married on Saturday, November 25, at their preferred locations had their wedding reception filled with top Nigerian celebrities. 

Although Banky W’s wedding took place in Cape Town, South Africa while Oritsefemi staged his in the heart of Lagos. 

But Oritsefemi has come to warn people who are saying his colleague’s wedding outshined his because it took place outside the country. 




Speaking with Punch, Oritsefemi disclosed that he was not even aware that Banky W was having his wedding same day as his but both weddings were trending on social media. He added that what matters is the fact that both parties are happily married. 

He said: “Initially I did not notice that people were comparing my wedding with Banky W’s but later, after the whole ceremony I noticed it. I did not even know that Banky was getting married on the same day that I did. But to be truthful, I knew that he had a ceremony about a week ago so I thought that was his wedding. I have no issues with both of us getting married on the same day, if anything; it was more fun because like they say, the more the merrier. I was the one that got married and I am not even doing any form of comparison. All I wanted was to have a classy wedding and I got that at the end of the day. My wedding was well attended by highly respected people in the society. I don’t see any comparison because Banky even had his own in South Africa while mine was in Nigeria.” 





Oritsefemi added that: “Banky’s wedding did not outshine mine. Although I did not follow what was happening on the social media, I was told that my wedding trended on Twitter. I feel it was more fun for us that we got married on the same day and we were keeping people busy on the Internet. The Internet almost went crazy for both weddings. I don’t see any problem with it. Entertainers don’t see such as a competition but it is the fans that always start such comparison. All I know is that both weddings went well, they were classy and it would go down in history as one of the most talked about weddings of 2017. I congratulate Banky W on his wedding and wish him and his bride blessings.” 

Congratulations to the couples!  naij
