Wofai and husband, Taiwo
The Cole family in Victoria Island, Lagos, has publicly denounced and rejected the marriage of their son, Taiwo Cole, to popular skit maker and actress,Wofai Ewa.
Wofai and Taiwo recently had their traditional ceremony in Ugep, Cross River state.
In a viral statement, the familys patriarch, Kunle Cole, declared that they were unaware of the marriage plans and therefore did not grant consent or support.
The statement reads partly: This serves to notify all acquaintances, family, and friends that the Cole family of Victoria Island, Lagos, are not aware of any marriage ceremony of our son, Taiwo Olakitan Cole; neither did we grant permission nor support in this regard, the statement read.
As such, the person(s) parading themselves as new members of the Cole heritage under this purported event are not known nor accepted by the family. All publications and documents being circulated about this are to be disregarded, it added.
The disclaimer followed viral images and videos showing Taiwo participating in what appeared to be a traditional marriage rite with Wofai.
Wofai and Taiwo took to their Instagram pages on Saturday to share marriage photos.
One of the posts read: I found my happily ever after, and I said yes!! Chai!! Love is sweet o. Thank you guys for all the love and messages. (The Nation)
