The £178,000 Odemwingie wedding

31 year old Nigerian footballer Osaze Odemwingie married his British girlfriend of two years, 22 year old Sarah Fallon on Saturday May 26th in the UK. Now I hear from inside sources that the wedding cost the footballer a whooping £178, 000. The couple who had just 250 guests spent the money on wedding attires, the castle, which is the most exclusive wedding venue in the UK, fireworks, reception, food, drinks, plus guests the groom flew in from all over the world, hotel bookings etc. Wishing them a happy married life!

  13. Umm... Linda he earns £40000 per week. He just needed a few week's savings.

    Your father is the cheapskate. Why do you burn with jealousy? It's people like you that won't stay in their husbands' houses for long.
    £128000 is about N44.5m. Your entire relatives' marriage combined doesn't add up to that. Your jealousy and hatred will kill you. I can see you're angered he didn't marry a Nigerian like you. Rubbish. People like you irritate me

  15. @ anon May 29 , 2012 1.44AM.....lmao. Dang an so I hit raw nerve? Hahahahah I'm. Always happy when I rattle peoples feathers. Yup he cheap mofo. How much is £200,000 really? Money wey o buy Lamborghini or Ferrari Enzo. I guess your poverty striken existence won't enable you to understand that non-pro athletes spend £100, 000 and up on weddings....ask God to get you with small money so u can understand why osaze s being frugal with is small chane. Even jay jay okocha wedding pass 50 million naira...so what's ur darn point again?

  17. @May 29, 2012 2:05 AM lmao. So because he's a footballer that has money he should spend it all on his wedding. Since Odemwingie and Okocha are on the same terms. Indeed it hardly ends well for your type. Mark my words

  37. Sounds like a lot of money to us but probably less than 3weeks wages for him. All this aside it doesn't really matter how much he spends £200k or £20k once they are happy.

    And to all those complaining about her being English have you forgotten that he is of mixed heritage? Does it really matter that she is Caucasian? Nigerian women are probably as likely to take him for a ride as an English woman. In fact I've found a lot of Nigerian women to be quite materialistic. Look at this blog for instance, there is a lot of focus on who is buying what car or phone. Is this news?

  38. Stephanie spent over a million dollars on her wedding but who cares

    1. Huh? What did u say? Laff wan tear me anus!!! so becos stephanie did her wedding in paris, that automatically means she spent MONEY? Didn't you hear Arik & Air france sponsored the wedding. i.e guests flew to france courtesy both airlines. That should give you an idea on whether Stephanie spent her money sef.
      Next time don't compare stephanie and footballers. Shoe get size abeg. Who dash monkey

  41. So why do you have to tell us that you work as an oncologist in the states? Who cares really?

    ReplyDelete
  42. If you multiply £178,000 by N250, it will give you N44,500,000 of 9ja currency. That is too much WAZOBIA.I wish Ode-D-Wing happy married life.

  45. Osaze is very good looking but he spoiled the whole effect by opting for a white suit! SO what if he spent 178,000 on his wedding??? He has earned the money and he can well afford it, so fair play to you.In any case, in Nigeria, I have come across people who spend far more money than that on weddings anyway

    ReplyDelete
  46. A lot of idios now comment on this blog:(shame Linda.I used to like your blog but I see a lot of bitter angry frustrated and never do wells nowadays .Shame:(

    ReplyDelete
  47. osaze hasn't spent anything that worths making the headlines jor. let's face it. how much is 50 million naira?

    ReplyDelete
  48. yes the cheapskate comment is coming from a broke frustrated menopausal female he is married oooooo full stop...nothing you say will change that... ever..

    ReplyDelete
  49. Hope you signed a pre-nup cos that chick will take more than half of your money when the divorce comes... not being negative but IT WILL.

    ReplyDelete
  50. So typical black men. Once they start making money they cannot wait to get themselves a white girl especially one that is no better than trailer-thrash. You never see white men of the same calibre dating such women or men of other races for that matter. Black men need to learn to like themselves. It has nothing to do with love but everything to do with race.

    1. U are very foolish and ridiculous, just because a black man marries a white woman doesn't mean she is trailer trash, cos my wife of 5 years is white and I bet she is way cute and not trailer trash. And guess what? She is more beautiful than you .

  51. STUPID COMMENTERS AND THEIR BIAS AGAINST A MAN'S CHOICE OF WIFE AGAIN...HABA!!! UNA NO DEY REST? LET THE GUY BE OH!!! HE DIDNT MARRY YOUR AFRICAN OR NIGERIAN WOMEN, SO WHAT? INFACT WITH THE WAY Y'ALL EMPHASISE THEIR INTER-RACIAL UNION, YOU DISPLAY HOW MUCH OF LOW-SELF ESTEEM YOU'RE ENDOWED WITH.

    THAT SAID: WHAT HE SPENT ON THAT WEDDING IS LITTEL COMPARED TO WHAT HE EARNS IN A MONTH...EVEN AFTER TAX...SO HATERS, DIE ALREADY!!! RIP

    *mteeewww*
