& Tobi

11 & 12 December 2026
Enugu · Lagos

The details

Dear family and friends,

We met in a lecture hall at UNN, arguing about whether jollof should ever have bay leaves. Nine years later, we still disagree about that, but about nothing that matters. We would love you to be there as we begin forever.

Our story

2017

The argument

A shared table in the faculty library, one very strong opinion about jollof rice, and a friendship that started over a borrowed pen.

2021

Long distance

Tobi moved to Lagos for work, Ada stayed in Enugu for her masters. A thousand voice notes and too many night buses.

2025

The question

At sunset on the beach in Zanzibar, Tobi forgot every word of his speech. Ada said yes anyway.
