Ijaw leader Chief Edwin Clark remarries at 86, to Dr Bisola Sodipo

Ijaw Leader and former Information Minister, Chief Edwin Clark remarried last week Sunday March 17th at the age of 86. Today is actually is 86th birthday. Happy birthday, sir! Back to the story. Chief Clark married well known medical doctor, Dr Abisola Sodipe Akindeko. The wedding ceremony took place at his home in Apapa and another one at the bride's home at Okupe Estate in Maryland.

Dr Abisola Akindeko is the former best friend of Iyabo Obasanjo who lost two of her children in an assassination attempt on Iyabo Obasanjo's life. Dr Abisola's children were riding in Iyabo's car when it was attacked by hired assassins in 2003. The gunmen, thinking Iyabo was in the car, shot into the car killing the two children instantly. Iyabo and Dr Abisola had been riding in the doctors car, while the children rode in Iyabo's car. It was a huge story back then. Glad to know she's doing well now!

      Why not, jor as long as he is single and they love each other. She knows she is a caregiver wife and he too will reward her with security and position. It shows that there is still hope for some of us that are still single and not willing to become second wives or snatch other peoples husbands. I wish them the best, fine woman sef.

    Oh my goodness! I must have been living under a rock. She lost TWO of her kids to assasains??? that must be a horrible ordeal for any woman to go thru especially if you now find out the bullet was meant for another. That is so sad. I pray she finds healing. I hope the iyabo obasanjo herself has left that naija becos i doubt they will attempt to kill her once and leave it at that. Naija is a hell hole of a wicked place. I dont know what joy you guys celebrate in that place. Way too many wicked people trying to bring each other down day in-day out

    please why should ppl at 86 be booking their place in heaven. I guess maybe the ppl who talk like that don't expect to be alive at that age. Age ain't nothing but a number abeg. Love is love. You can see that Chief plans to be around to enjoy his new wife. More grease to his elbow and happy married life to them both.

    Really sad, tears in my eyes as I read this. You people don't know the meaning of depression, after loosing two kids the same day, it only takes the grace of God for a mother to be sane after the ordeal,if those kids where alive, they should be in their 20's or close to the age range. May their souls rest in peace.

    You nigerians are very heartless people and just curse your govt for your woes and misfortune for nothing. This story should touch the heart of any one who has any human feelings in them. I cannot believe about 90% of the people who commented on this story were more concerned with the baba's libido and the woman marrying someone older than her as compared to the fact that two of her young children were gunned down in that lawless country of yours. you are sad people nigerians
