Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie Finally Shares Her Wedding Pictures With Her Parents
"Years after getting married to her handsome husband, Nigerian novelist, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie has finally shared her marriage and white wedding photos on her Instagram page. Sharing her wedding photos for the first time in honour of her parents, especially her mother, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie wrote:
"I have always felt that western wedding traditions sideline the mother of the bride — the father walks the bride down the aisle, the father has the first dance with the bride, often the father gives a speech while the mother doesn’t.
Our wedding, many years ago, was small and lovely, just as we wanted it. I asked family and friends not to post any photos publicly. I wanted privacy. But my need for privacy is now superceded by my desire to publicly honour the rare and wonderful woman I called my mother. And I hope this perhaps inspires any young women (and men) out there who are questioning any kind of convention.
Before the wedding, I decided that both my parents would walk me down the aisle. And I decided that my first dance would be with my mother. My father, who I often teasingly called DOS for “Defender of Spouse,” was very supportive. He wasn’t much of a dancer - I inherited his unrhythmic genes - but my mother was. And my mother’s joy on that day was a gorgeous glowing thing.
Convention is something made up by somebody and then repeated by others. If convention feels wrong for you, if your skin bristles and your spirit stalls at the thought of doing something “the way it is done,” then stop and act.
We can make changes. We can try and craft small slices of the life we want.
We can unmake convention to make things more just, more complete, more beautiful.
Not everyone will be happy with you, because it is human nature to try and conserve things as they are, but your spirit will feel full, and there is nothing more meaningful than knowing you have been true to yourself."

Unknown to several people, especially those who admire and follow multi award-winning Nigerian writer, Chimamanda Adiche; her husband, the handsome Ivara Esege, is from Cross River State.
Ivara Esege, who is a medical doctor in Baltimore, Maryland, USA, hails from Itigidi, Abi Local Government Area of Cross River State. The duo met in the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, where their parents taught and later got married in 2009. Unfortunately, Ivara lost both parents in a ghastly auto crash one weekend as they were driving to Itigidi from Enugu. This sad incident happened long before they got married. It is however uncertain if Adiche has ever visited her husband’s village.
Itigidi is a not too large riverine community in Cross River Central, South-South Nigeria and is also the home of former Cross River State Governor, Liyel Imoke. It is home to one of the earliest health care facility in Cross River State; the Eja Memorial Joint Hospital, incidentally built by Imoke’s father who was a parliamentarian in Nigeria’s first republic.
