Nigerian rapper Oladipo Emmanuel, popularly known as Chinko Ekun, has finally unveiled the official photographs from his wedding to his longtime partner, Ayemidun.
The couple, who tied the knot last week in Ibadan, looked radiant as they sealed their love in a ceremony that blended elegance, romance, and cultural pride.
In one of the stunning portraits, Chinko Ekun and his bride are seen walking hand-in-hand into the reception hall, both clad in dazzling white.
The rapper rocked a crisp white tuxedo jacket paired with black trousers, while Ayemidun stunned in a long-sleeved satin gown with a flowing train, holding a delicate bouquet of white orchids. Their smiles and locked gazes captured the pure joy of the moment.
Another photo showed the lovebirds seated against a dreamy floral backdrop of white blossoms. Chinko, beaming in his signature cheerful style, posed with his bride, who leaned affectionately into him while showing off her bouquet.
The third shot radiated romance, with Chinko cradling his wife as he planted a kiss on her cheek. Ayemidun’s off-shoulder gown with corset detail and sparkling earrings added a touch of glamour.
Sharing the photos on Instagram, Chinko captioned them with a heartfelt Bible reference:
“Proverbs 18:22. Last week, I got married to the love of my entire life in the presence of God, our families, friends and loved ones. It was the happiest day of my life and I am grateful to God for keeping things running smoothly.”
The star-studded wedding began with a colourful traditional engagement at Manhattan Hall, Eleyele, Ibadan, where the rapper stunned in a regal black-and-gold agbada, while his bride matched in dazzling aso-oke. The couple later transitioned into their white wedding, a celebration filled with music, laughter, and heartfelt speeches.
For Chinko Ekun, this marriage is not just about love but also about triumph over adversity. Despite scoring a massive hit with Able God in 2018, he revealed in 2022 that he had experienced homelessness after parting ways with his former record label.
