Paul Okoye of PSquare, on Saturday, got married to his long-time friend and mother of his son, Anita Isama, at the popular Aztech Arcum Event Centre, Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
The elaborate traditional wedding, which was witnessed by family members, friends and celebrities from various sections of the nation’s entertainment industry, will remain the talk of town for a long time.
It would be recalled that Paul and Anita had their pre-wedding shoot at Raddison Blu, Victoria Island, Lagos. During the shoot, Paul and Anita reminisced on their first meeting.
“We have been married since. It’s just now that we want to make it official. We have known each other for 10 years. That was when I was in my final year. She was a Jambite then. I’m glad that we are finally doing this. She gave me a lovely boy, who is everything for me. I’m happy that I am finally settling down,” Paul revealed.
Anita also confirmed that they were involved in a lot of mischief in school. According to her, “It was fun and exciting. We had plenty adventures back then in school. But we had to wait for the right time when we are both ready,” she said.

Among the dignitaries at the colourful ceremony were Governor of Rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi, Minister of Tourism, Chief Edem Duke, Bisi Olatilo, Kenny Ogungbe, D’banj, Banky-W, Sound Sultan, Ice Prince, Pasuma, J-Martins, Phyno and Darey, Kanayo O. Kanayo, Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde, Ejike Asiegbu, Uche Jombo, Funke Akindele and Ini Edo, among others.
Reports indicates that the wedding almost became a concert as several top Nigerian musicians mounted the stage to perform their songs.
The event could almost be mistaken for a music concert as D’banj, Banky W, Phyno, Bracket, Sound Sultan, Ikechukwu, J Martins and Naeto C took to the stage to perform songs.
The artistes did not perform a song apiece; they each sang 2-3 songs, with D’banj, who was the surprise guest and performer at the wedding, performing 4 songs.
Finally, PSquare fans showed their love as hundreds of them thronged the event venue and remained there from about 2pm till dusk.
They loudly cheered and hailed every celebrity that walked into the venue, with Comic-Actor, Mr. Ibu, receiving the loudest cheer, NET reports.
The fans proved to be a challenge for the security, as they unsuccessfully attempted to surge into the venue several times.
Up until 9pm when the final batch of guests left the premises, there were still about 50 resilient fans standing outside the gate.
