Zahra Buhari |
A new date has reportedly been fixed for the wedding of President
Muhammadu Buhari’s daughter, Zahra. The new date for the wedding, which
was postponed last week, is December 16, according to an invite, which
is making the rounds.
The new date was reportedly fixed after due consultation and approval
by the president, who demanded for the shift in the date after the
heated media attention generated by the delivery of expensive designer
boxes containing gifts from the groom’s family to the 21-year-old bride.
“Hajia Aisha M. Buhari cordially invites you to the wedding Fatiha of
her daughter, Zahra Buhari and Ahmed Indimi, which will take place on
December 16, while the Kamu will take place in Abuja. Detail of the
events will be communicated to you,” the invite stated.
The wedding was said to have been postponed as a result of President
Buhari’s insistence on a low
-key ceremony for the 21-year-old bride to
be. It was gathered that the president was uncomfortable with the
attention the media was giving to the event, especially reports that the
groom’s family was presenting 30 Louis Vuitton bags to Zahra.
It was widely reported that the groom, Ahmed Indimi, had presented
bags, worth about £120,000 (N47,144,502), to the bride ahead of the
wedding.An introduction ceremony between both families had earlier held
at the Aso Villa, Abuja on Friday, November 18, with the wedding
programme scheduled for between November 30 and Sunday, December 4,
2016.Indimi is the marketing director of Oriental Energy Resources.
