Olamide Raheeda Okoya, the daughter of billionaire industrialist Razaq Okoya and Folasade Okoya, got engaged to Imran Saro Gobir at the Okoyas’ family home in Lagos on Saturday, April 25.
The groom is the son of the late Ambassador Abubakar Garba Gobir, a former Nigerian diplomat who served as Nigeria’s ambassador to Iraq.
The ceremony, which combined a traditional introduction with a Nikkah (Islamic marriage rite), drew members of Nigeria’s political, business, and social elite.
Recall that Sade Okoya had announced the ceremony via her Instagram page on Friday, describing the engagement as a celebration of love.
She wrote:
In a moment defined by grace and significance, the families of Chief Razaq Akanni Okoya, CON, Aare of Lagos, and Chief (Mrs.) Folashade Okoya, MON, Bewaji of Lagos, together with the families of the late Alhaji Umar Ayinla Saro, OFR, CON, and the late Ambassador Abubakar Garba Gobir, announce the engagement of their children, marking the coming together of two distinguished lineages grounded in shared values, faith, and purpose.
The engagement reflects not only a celebration of love but also the beginning of a partnership built on submission to Allah, mutual respect, and legacy. Both families have expressed deep gratitude to Almighty Allah for this joyous milestone and pray for a marriage filled with barakah, peace, and enduring happiness.
