The date Sunday 21st of April, 2018 will remain unforgettable in the minds of many Lagos society women as it was the day 6 popular Lagos Society women threw classy parties that shut down Lagos for over 8 hours. The events which made many Lagos society women move from one location to the other has been one of the subjects of discussion within Lagos social circuit as many of the society women had to go to each of the parties with boxes filled with different Aso-Ebi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not only did many of them had to change from their car, but some were also seen with their make-up artist who had to either change the \u201ceye shadow\u201c, \u201clipsticks\u201c to match with the colour code of each party. All the venues of each event were filled with \u201cOni-Gele\u201c(celebrity headgear maker) who had to change the headgears of many of the society women who were\u00a0 not wearing the\u00a0 picked aso-ebi to the \u201cAso-Ebi\u201c gele of the new party<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Many wondered why many of these celebrity women had to pick that particular date for their parties knowing that they will have over 70 per cent of the same crowd at each party. Some were even seen asking one another if they were coming to the other party. City People investigation revealed that many had to pick that particular weekend since the holy month of Ramadan is fast approaching and many hardly attend parties during such time. It was also revealed that this holy month always witnesses a low turnout of guests and this was why many Lagos society women decided to fix their party to the weekend closer to Ramadan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let\nus Gist you on how Lagos Society Matriarch, Alhaja Risikat Odunmosu, the\nIyaloja General of all Lagos Fabric sellers shut down Ligali Ayorinde Street,\nVictoria Island. Mrs Risikat Odumosu fondly called Risikat Kolex threw a talk\nof town wedding for her last daughter, Oyinkasola amidst pomp and pageantry.\nThe event took place at the New Queens park in Lagos and the colour code was\ncobalt blue affairs. The event paraded over 5000 celebrity women from all walks\nof life. Though Mrs Risikat Kolex\u2019s husband, Kayode Odumosu is late but he is\nalso very popular on Lagos social scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Oyinkansola\nOdunmosu got married to Lagos big boy Abiodun Lawal with many Lagos big men and\nbusiness tycoon as in attendance. Oyinkasola who is her mum\u2019s look-alike stole\nthe show when she stepped out in Burgundy shimmer aso-oke from Shadiat\nAlasooke, the daughter of Lagos Fabric merchant, Hajia Sukurat Kalejaiye.\nWalking like a princess that she is, her beautiful flawless face was\ntransformed by \u201cAnita brows while Segun Gele tied her headgear. What about her\n18carat Gold? It was sourced from the Gold store in Italy for the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mrs Risikat Kolex who is the best friend of Mrs Rosemary Osipitan, the CEO of First royal oil came in with her many guests to share in the joy of her friend whom she calls \u201cAmori\u201c while Risikat Kolex calls her \u201cAbebi\u201c. This duo is always a delight at many Lagos Owambe and that is why over 5000 wore the general hand-cut Aso-Ebi while over\u00a0 200 society women rock the special Velvet Sequence Aso-Ebi\u201c which was specifically picked for mothers. Though many of the society women had to be at the 5 others parties, the love they have for Risikat Kolex made them turn out big as the hall was filled to the brim with celebrities from each South-West Zone. They didn\u2018t only move in train, the road which leads to the New Queens park was filled with powerful automobiles. Who won\u2019t want to come and honour the Iyaloja of Idumota market that has been selling fabrics for over 30years? Perhaps none, it was an array of fabric merchants who are major players in the fabric sector in Nigeria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another wedding which made Lagos stand still for hours on Sunday 21st of April is the wedding of popular Lagos society woman, Mrs Olusola Ademosu, the best friend of Chief Mrs Bisi Abiola, the wife of Late Moshood Kashimawo OLawale Abiola. Her Son Babatunde Adfemosun weds Osun Princess, Oyeloyin, the grandchild of Soun of Ogbomosho land. The wedding which witnesses a huge crowd of many Lagos society women and babes took place at the spacious Landmark Event Centre on Ligali Ayorinde Street in Victoria Island.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Many who made Oyinkansolas wedding of hashtag “AOL19\u201c were also sighted at Landmark where \u201cTying the knot\u2018 took place. The wedding which was just a few meters away from where Risi Kolex daughter\u2018s wedding took place has been on the lips of many Lagos society women who had to shuttle both venues at different hours.\u00a0 The beautiful bride, Oyeloyin was the cynosure of all eyes as she stepped out in green multi-coloured Aso-oke with her handsome husband to be. They were joined traditionally by Lagos celebrity Engagement Anchor, \u201c\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Ile OkoYa\u201c while a grand wedding reception dinner later took place at Ikoyi club in Lagos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Though\ntheir Aso-ebi was similar in colour with Oyinkansola Osumosu\u2019s wedding, but\ntheir headgear was a Majenta colour with touch of blue and many society women\nwho made Oyinkansola\u2019s wedding also made Oyinloye\u2019s wedding in Victoria Island.\nOf course many of the bouncers allowed them in because not only did they have\ninvitations for the wedding, they had to use the headgear colour code to wrap\ntheir body. The likes of Hajia Morufat\nShabi, Mrs Jokotade Adeusi, Mrs Bimbo Benjamin to mention a few were among who\nhad to honour many of this Lagos society woman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Though the \u201cOmopeleat 40\u201c wedding hashtag Aso-Ebi was a royal blue and silver affairs but the majority of the society women wore the\u00a0 Oyinkansolas Odunmosus and Oyeloyin wedding colour theme. The event which was planned, packaged by Hjaia Bolanle \u201cGolditeventsolution\u201c, the lady behind that popular Nollywood wedding hashtags \u201cOba2018\u201c was fully on ground to make sure the event was memorable.

The likes of Alhaja Shine Ahine to mention a few who rocked the 2 Aso-Ebi for Risi Kolex daughter\u2019s wedding was among many sighted at the birthday.\u00a0\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n
