    M.I Abaga Traditionally Wed Eniola Mafe

    Iconic Nigerian Rapper, MI Abaga, aka, The Guy has begun the process to tie the knot with his sweetheart and his fiancée, Eniola Mafe, held their traditional wedding on Thursday.

    The lovebirds took to their individual Instagram accounts to share pictures and videos of the ceremony.

    In April, the 40-year-old rap artiste and CEO of Chocolate City Record label announced his engagement to his beau, Eniola Mafe. Taking to his Instagram account the artiste wrote, “So… Wanted to share that I’ve gotten engaged to @EniolaMafe I’m generally very private with things like this but I wanted to share my joy with you guys. Pray for us… we will need it! Thank you for your support,”

    Moreso, his fiancée, Mafe via her Instagram handle at the time also announced their engagement with loving photos as she took to her caption section with the words, “I was minding my single-woman business, hanging out with friends, progressing in my career, living my best life in Europe and staying hydrated. @audumaikori had heard me talk about what kind of person I would ever consider as a life partner. One day he told me that there was someone he thought would be a great fit for me.

    “He described Jude and while I liked what I heard, I specifically said that dating a rapper was “not my ministry”. I had obviously heard of Jude and liked his music, and knew him to be handsome, highly intelligent and driven, but that was it. At the same time, Jude had noticed me and started following me on social media. I remember thinking “hmmm?!?!” but passed it up to my INCREDIBLE social media charm and the quality of my thought-provoking Instagram content.

    “To carry on our technology-enabled connection, Jude would find cute ways to support me, connect with me, share funny stories, or write me songs on the spot when I was down. That’s how love entered and will never leave o!!!!”(sic)
