Deji Adeyanju, the political activist and convener of the human rights group Concerned Nigerians, has tied the knot with Nana Bello, the entrepreneur.
The vow ceremony was held on Saturday at Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Centre while the reception took place at the International Conference Centre (ICC) in Garki, Abuja.
The ceremony was graced by dignitaries, including Yele Sowore, a presidential candidate at the 2023 general election, and Shehu Sani, the lawmaker.
Bashir Ahmad, former special assistant on digital communications to ex-President Muhammadu Buhari, also took to social media to congratulate the couple.

Nana had earlier shared pictures from their wedding registry — before the vow and reception.
She also described their union as “two hearts with one love” while praying for God’s love to be the “centre of our marriage”.
“Through God’s grace, our paths intertwined, and now we stand on the threshold of our forever. In these moments captured, I see His love shining through us, guiding us towards a lifetime of faith, hope, and love. With each step we take, I pray we always remember to keep Him at the center of our marriage, trusting in His plan for us. I am blessed beyond measure to walk this journey with you, my love. Together, let us build a foundation of unwavering faith and a love that reflects His glory In The Name of Jesus Christ Amen,” Nana wrote on Instagram.
