Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has clarified the faith of his soon-to-be son-in-law, Oluseun Bakare.
Mr Bakare, son of socialite, Bola Shagaya, is expected to marry Osinbajo’s first child, Damilola, on March 15.
His mother is Muslim.
There had been speculation that the groom only recently converted to Christianity to win over Osinbajo, who is a prominent member of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG).
Speaking through a tweet by his media aide, Laolu Akande, on Saturday, Osinbajo confirmed that Bakare is also a member of the church.
Bakare, according to the tweet, “is a member of the RCCG Abuja Central Parish and Teenage church pastor there”.
