“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.

It continued, “As such, person(s) parading themselves as new members of the Cole heritage by virtue of this purported event, are not known nor accepted by the family. All publications and documents being circulated about this are to be disregarded.”

Also, a purported telephone conversation between the groom’s father and a family friend suggested that the Cole family opposed the marriage because is eight years older than their son.

The family patriarch also accused the groom’s mother, whom she divorced 27 years ago, of encouraging his son to disregard him and go ahead with the wedding.

The development follows online images and videos showing Taiwo participating in what appeared to be a traditional marriage rite with Ewa, who hails from Ugep in Cross River.
