One of the biggest gifts received by 2face and Annie, during
their final wedding ceremony over the weekend, was the N12.6m Chevrolet Corvette Luxury Coupé.
The luxurious automobile was
presented to the couple right after the wedding ceremony in Dubai, reportedly,
courtesy Senate President David
Mark, who hails from the same town as 2face; Idoma,
Benue State. Mark did not personally attend the event.
The gift comes a few weeks
after Akwa Ibom State Governor Godswill
Akpabio blessed the lucky couple with an SUV gift when
they visited the state for their traditional nuptials. Annie Uwana Macaulay is from Eket, in Akwa Ibom.
Again, there have been strong
reactions and harsh criticisms over the very luxurious gift.
‘David Mark Rejected A Bill For
Unemployed Graduates to be paid N20,000, yet he squandered money by giving a
car for 2face as wedding gift‘, @HadiMusawa wrote.
But other reports suggest that
it might not have been a gift from David Mark after all. Some blogs report that Kola
Ologbondiyan, Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to
David Mark, allegedly claims the gift is not from the Senate President.
‘Senator Mark did not visit
Dubai for Tiface wedding rather he attended the 128th Inter parliamentary Union
(IPU) conference currently holding in Quito, Ecuador. He was also not
represented at Mr. Idibia’s wedding.
It
is also instructive to state that the President of the Senate, Senator Mark,
did not make a car donation of any kind to Tuface before departing Nigeria for
Ecuador neither did he purchase nor send any car to Dubai as a wedding gift for
the musician or his wife‘, the statement read.
The controversial gift
however came with a paper tag which read ‘Wedding gift from Senator David
Mark to Tuface and Annie‘.
