Apparently, the ‘wedding’ between popular Instagram skit makers, Debo Adedayo, fondly known as Mr Macaroni, and Kemi Ikuseedun, also known as Mummy Wa, is a hoax.
According to sources who spoke to Daily Trust in confidence, the wedding was just make-believe. However, when Daily Trust reached out to the pair, their phones were switched off.
One of the sources close to Mr Macaroni, via the telephone, stated that he and Mummy Wa used the wedding gimmick to draw traffic to their pages, as well as that of the vendors that were tagged in the post.
“They are not married o. It was a sort of collaboration between them and some of the vendors that they tagged,” the source said.
Also, after much probing, one of the vendors also spilled the beans, saying that the supposed wedding was just make-believe. The vendor simply said, “It is a celebrity make-belief shoot. It’s not real.”
The pair who have become popular on the social media space, especially on Instagram through their skits, got tongues wagging over the weekend when they posted pictures of themselves in what seemed to be their traditional wedding photos.
Moreso, Mr Macaroni, via his verified Instagram page, posted a series of pictures and wrote, “Engagement Today, Wedding Tomorrow,” said in reference to the assumed wedding to Mummy Wa.
Similarly, Kemi took to her verified Instagram page, @Kemz_mama, and posted a short wedding clip with the watermark “Kemi Ikuseedun + Debo Adebayo.”
In the caption section, she wrote, “DaddyWa finally paid mummy wa’s bride price @mrmacaroni + @kemz_mama.”
GreenWhiteGreen GWG reports that quite a sizeable proportion of Nigerians had been taken in by the news of the wedding between the famous collaborators, Mr Macaroni and Mummy Wa after the marriage pictures surfaced online through their social media handles.
