Hello Lovebirds! – there are soooo many sweet moments that will leave you smiling today! This past Saturday stunning music superstar Tiwa Savage wed her manager and best friend, Tunji Balogun. BellaNaija Weddings was so blessed to attend the fun celebration! Our recap will make you feel like you were there…except no yummy cupcakes, jollof rice and champagne for you! 
The traditional engagement and reception held at The Ark in Lekki on Saturday 23rd November 2013, where rainy skies ushered the couple into their newlywed status with showers of joy and blessings. The celebrity engagement was planned by The Wedding Company which has coordinated a long list of epic Nigerian weddings, with stunning decor by Newton & David – using sweet handcrafted swans as a motif.
Tiwa made a spectacular choice for the aso ebi – ladies looked so pretty in their pink and gold gele and lace while the gentlemen wore pink fila.
The natural beauty wore a unique embroidered white and silver lace iro with embellished gele, ipele andbuba for their traditional Yoruba engagement rites. She was adorned with a diamond necklace & drop earrings. TJ wore white agbada paired with a traditional fila with a coral neckpiece when he kissed his new bride for the first time.
For their second outfit, the couple looked absolutely regal in their purple attire. Tiwa’s waist length neckpiece swayed with her every move, catching the glistening accent lights in the marquee.
For their third and final look, Tiwa let her hair down and looked ravishing in a dazzling silver and navy blue number, while TJ kept it traditional in his silver fila. They rocked to every performance by their celeb friends, and jammed to old school hits all night long!

Photos: APC protest against electoral fraud in Anambra state

Here are some photos from the All Progressives Congress (APC) congress march taking place at INEC HQ, Abuja. The APC says the protest to INEC headquarters is to register its disapproval of the Commission’s string of failures in conducting recent elections, including the ‘inconclusive’ Anambra Governorship poll. They are demanding the cancellation of Anambra gubernatorial poll. 

The protesters were stopped by a detachment heavily armed policemen who prevented them from reaching the INEC offices. Protesters include former Lagos governor, Bola Tinubu, former military head of state, Muhammadu Buhari, and Chief Bisi Akande. See photos after the cut...

Federal Government gives ASUU 1 week ultimatum to call off strike

During a press briefing in Abuja this morning, the acting Minister of Education, Nyesom Wike told journalist that the Federal Government has given the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) one week ultimatum to call off the ongoing strike.

Or else what? ASUU execs and President Jonathan were supposed to meet this week but the meeting is yet to hold. The ASUU strike began July 1, almost 5 months later, no resolution in sight. Sad!

The FG also said any Academic staff who fails to resume on or before December 4th automatically ceases to be a staff of the institution. Pro-chancellors of the various universities and the National Universities Commissions (NUC) have been directed to ensure compliance of this directive.
