Chimamanda Adichie

Accomplished writer Chimamanda Adichie has joined her nephew Toks Oremule and his lover Nicole in holy matrimony in the United States.

The Purple Hibiscus writer was the officiating minister at the wedding.

Chimamanda shared on Instagram a video of the moment where she asks her nephew the ‘officiating minister’s question’.

She described it as one of the greatest honours of her life.

“One of the greatest honors of my entire life ❤️ — officiating the wedding of my beloved nephew (aka my ‘first son’) @toks417 and the love of his life @nicole_lus,” the 46-year-old wrote in her Monday post, adding #toksandnicole.

Toks and Nicole got engaged in October 2022.

In November 2023, they bought a home in Middletown, Connecticut.

Toks shared a photo of himself and Nicole in front of the apartment on Instagram with the caption, “Officially Middletown homeowners.”
