Ex-Speaker Bankole Set To Wed Kebbi Governor’s Daughter Jan 15

 

 

 

 

A former Speaker House of Representatives, Dimeji Bankole, will on Friday, January 15, wed Miss Aisha Mohammed Saidu, the daughter of Kebbi State Governor, Atiku Bagudu.

Bankole who had divorced his first wife in 2017 has almost perfected plans to tie the nuptial knot with Miss Saidu in Abuja.

The bride is a graduate of the University of Hull in the United Kingdom and a lawyer.

According to the wedding invitation, the ceremony will hold between Thursday and Friday in Abuja.

A statement from the Bankole family of Iporo, Abeokuta disclosed that a quiet introduction between the two families took place to kick off the joining together in line with Islamic and traditional injunctions.
At the introduction ceremony, Sokoto Governor and Bankole’s successor as Speaker of the House of Representatives, Aminu Tambuwal, led the groom’s family to the bride’s family home to seek her hand in marriage.

The family, however, mandated guests attending the wedding to wear a face mask in compliance with COVID-19 safety measures.
