Abuja listed like a cruise ship on the day Jamila, daughter of former PDP Chairman, Alhaji Bamanga Tukur, married Sports Minister, Prof. Taoheed Adedoja, in a classy wedding not too long ago. There, top notch politicians and businessmen gathered to celebrate with the couple. However, Jamila’s marriage to Adedoja will be her second attempt at marriage. It would be recalled that she quit her first marriage in London, due to incompatibility with her first husband.
Jamila’s first marriage was severely hampered by irreconcilable differences with her estranged husband. The marriage which produced beautiful kids eventually crashed despite friends and family’s heartfelt attempts to reunite Jamila and her first husband. Jamila is the product of Alhaji Bamaga’s love-child with his Calabar wife, Aminat. Tukur married Amina soon after she clocked 30. Rumour has it that he gave Jamila to Adedoja to cement their bond and friendship. It is an open secret that Bamanga Tukur is a mentor to Prof. Adedoja.
