As guests began to flood the ballroom, Jide Ogbola and his band members began to sing beautiful songs.

As guests trooped in, Mc Jimmy Jairo began to acknowledge the entrance of important guests in the room.
Shortly afterwards, Chief Mrs Mojisola Teniola danced alongside her husband, Chief Eric Teniola and their children.

Everyone could not but point out her significant role as a patient wife to Chief Teniola and a loving woman to her family and her husband’s family too.
