Contrary to the news making the rounds that Nollywood star Genevieve Nnaji and Dapo Oyebanjo a.k.a. D’banj are getting married, P.M. Entertainment can reveal that the marriage rumour is a ruse.
Investigations revealed that D’banj’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Oyebanjo, his producer, Don Jazzy and Sunday Are, his manager, are not aware of the so-called wedding plan reported by a weekly soft sell magazine.
P.M. Entertainment learnt that the hip hop singer who was in London at that time, attended Genevieve’s birthday party as a guest and not as a would-be husband or lover.
A source close to D’banj’s family told P.M. Entertainment that he is yet to present the star actress to them according to the Yoruba tradition, wondering how he will pick a wedding date without the family’s consent and that of his best pal and business associate, Don Jazzy.
Speaking about the wedding plan, D’banj’s manager, Sunday Are, said: “although I cannot chose a wife for my son or husband for my daughter, Dapo and Genevieve are adults, they can get married if they wish. But as far as I’m concerned, I have not been briefed about such plans. All I know is that D’banj attended Genevieve’s birthday party held in London on 3 May, 2011 as a friend.”
All attempts to get the artiste’s comments on the issue were to no avail, but in a recent interview with a soft sell magazine, Genevieve denied dating D’banj.
She acknowledged the fact that both of them are friends, but added that it is just on a platonic level.
