Yakubu & Yvonne
Super Eagles and Everton striker, Yakubu Aiyegbeni married Yvonne Lameen Ikhana last week.
“When I wake up everyday, I look at her face and she makes me happy. I go for training and play my matches with happiness in my heart. That is the motivation that makes me perform well. She often tells me: ‘Just go there and play well and score for me.’ That gives me more confidence and belief in myself,” Yakubu said after the marriage ceremony. Eagles’ striker and Yakubu’s team-mate at Everton, Victor Anichebe, was the Best Man at the historic wedding ceremony that Captain Nwankwo Kanu and his wife, Amarachi also attended.
Kanu praised Yakubu’s decision to ‘settle down’ and urged the couple to show love and commitment to their marriage vows.
Retired skipper of the Eagles, Austin ‘Jay Jay’ Okocha took time out to felicitate with Yakubu and Yvonne.
“It’s good that Yakubu is married now. I wish him and his wife a happy married life,” Okocha said.

What’s up with the pink dress…very odd.
Aww, loving the tall cake. Thanks Bella for the post.
Nice pink dress….
Yakubu’s wife gown is beautiful
Congratulations to the new couples. Conjugal bliss!
Did she wear a pink wedding dress in 9ja…Yippie! There is hope for my friend , whose mother-in-law asked her to take her “off-white kinda gold” dress back for something very white.
Congrats to the happy couples

First time of me see-ing gele tied on someone’s head with the bang left out in front. It just doesn’t look right. She shouldn’t have left it out. Also wasn’t feeling the pink wedding dress. I guess she wants to be different from everyone else. But sometimes being over creative doesn’t work out . . . .
whats with kanu’s wife … looking so different from the last i saw of her . I hope she’s ok

Loving the pink wedding dress. When I was younger, I use to watch Coming to America all the time and cuz Lisa had that Pink Wedding dress, I vowed I would have a one too!lol
I reserve my comments, but hope they got professional pictures taken.
Nice couples.
BTW,
Bella I am going to be in Nigeria for my brothers wedding next week and would also be attending the “Thisday event” on Sunday.
‘law.
All the best to the love birds.
nigerian weather…lol
I think its too exagerrated though they are preety but my motto is LESS IS MORE
AFRICA WITH STYLE
WHY DOES KANU LOOK ANGRY OR SAD
doesn’t wearing pink for your wedding mean that u r pregnant or something?
wetin consine agbero wit overload.una too dey like drink medik55 for anoda man headdick.
she liked the pink wedding dress enough to wear it on her big day.it really doesn’t matter whether anyone likes it or not

Happy Married Life to both couples!
been trying my hardest not to comment on Kanu’s wife! but what is up with her? pls i hope it was just a bad angle.
The pink wedding dress- i guess whatever rocks her boat
@beezyminx….
err hun you DO know that because a woman is married to a footballer does not confer on her victoria beckham status right?
na yam,please let us be trying to be chilling when we passing comments ehn…the comparison is too far fetched.
nkechi looks nice but NOTHING compared to victoria in the styles stakes–i can pick TEN other random “society girls/women” AT THE DROP OF A DIME WHO WILL FLOOR HER(NKECHI)IN THE STYLES STAKES.

For me, both brides look beautiful! Phoenix expressed her individuality with a pink dress, it might not have been everyone’s pick but as long as she and her husband were happy with it. Tht’s what important. Besides, there have been stunning brides with effed marriages. I pray that God blesses both their marriages AMEN
Yeah as per the pics, not the usual quality that I strike for. Wish they had been professional pics but thought it was worth sharing.
Bella Naija delivers the goods as usual. Well done!
I have nothing against phoenix but she looked a mess! People get married only once mayne.. Strive to look your best that’s all I have to say.. Bangs are very hard to pull off. That being said I wish them a happy and fruitful marriage.
How long was yakubu dating yvonne before they married??

Yakubu’s wedding was okay. Nomorless, i wish the bride was as stunning as a bride shuld b on her wedding day.
Is Mrs Kanu Nwankwos eyes swollen, or is that just the way she look, …una see na poor girl, Amarachi wetin i tell you…big man, big trouble, now you no fit sleep, see as your eye swell up like Zik own, when he was in his last days, at least he some something through his years, …but u, u never see anything o, so open ya eye, na the beginning be this….enjoy the money o, before the swelling no make u see road again. Good luck!
God bless their unions…KANU…ENUFF already with the hair!
the only issue i av is the bang left out in front of the gele,its somehow..aside dt everyfin’s fine with me.wish them all a happy married life
