The type of security put in place when the likes of Aliko Dangote, Oba Rilwan Akiolu of Lagos and other top personalities stormed the Group Managing Director, Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), Kyari Mele’s son wedding is what other Nigerians need.
Nigerians often see Borno State as a danger zone to people due to the activities of the Boko Haram insurgent group.
But last Saturday, Aliko Dangote, Oba Rilwan Akiolu of Lagos and other top personalities shunned the security threat to celebrate with their friend, Group Managing Director, Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), Kyari Mele. It was on the occasion of the nuptials of Kyari’s son, Muhammad and daughter, Sadiya.
