Enioluwa Adeoluwa, Priscilla Ojo’s bestie, played the role of “Chief Bridesmaid” at her Nigerian wedding to Jux. Priscilla, 23, daughter of Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo had her Tanzanian traditional marriage earlier in 2025. The Nigerian ceremony held on April 17, 2025 was a Yoruba traditional wedding, both Enioluwa and Priscilla wore Aso-Ebi attire—a major part of Yoruba weddings where friends and family wear same outfit.

Enioluwa being the Chief Bridesmaid, a role usually reserved for women, raised eyebrows and questions. His traditional attire with yellow cap and beads matched Priscilla’s royal look with purple gele and jewelry. The post shows their deep friendship which has been a public topic especially after Enioluwa reacted playfully when he was left out of Priscilla’s initial bridesmaid list. This moment shows how wedding roles and friendships are evolving in Nigerian culture.

The post got mixed reactions from fans. Some celebrated the friendship, @Kdrama_editzz simply said “congratulations to you on your wedding” and @Mr_Seun “Celebrity status” acknowledging the star studded event. But others questioned the kind of friendship Enioluwa and Priscilla have. @Anonchu_ asked “what kind of friendship is this? Is it even possible?” while @BrodaYellow4 said “I can never allow my wife have a male bestie…I’d rather remain single 😊”
