Veteran Nigerian rap artiste, William Orioha, popularly known as 2shotz was on Friday, April 12, 2013 joined with his fiancée, Precious Chidinma Jones Echeofu in holy matrimony.
The wedding which held at the Ikoyi Marriage Registry, Ikoyi, Lagos was attended by a small crowd. The couple arrived the registry at around 10:30pm with a small entourage that included 2Shotz’s parents, brother, Umunna; Sister, Chichi; bride’s mother, and other close friends and family.
It must have been about a dozen weddings happening at the registry on that day as the registry was quite crowded with other brides and grooms plus family members who had come to celebrate with them too.
While 2Shotz’ bride was dressed in a short white dress, brown leggings and red shoes, 2Shotz was wearing a red shirt, brown suit and black pants.
At the wedding venue, while the bride, Precious was all agitated about the ceremony, 2Shotz did not express any emotions.
His response to a friend who congratulated him was, ‘We thank God oh’, with a little grin on his face.
It was indeed a relief for the rapper who had previously been linked with several ladies in the past few years. Last year, the bearded rapper was deeply involved in a relationship with former fiancée Georgina Apaemi, a graduate of University of Port Harcourt, Rivers State, whom the rapper openly proposed to at the City Mall, Lagos only to break it off months later after he reportedly ‘felt she was wasn’t the right one’.
Prior to dating Georgina, the Umunnamu Records boss had had a brief romance with Soundcity VJ,Jules. The couple then, were known to always openly flaunt their romance on social media without a care in the world.
Somewhere in between, the ‘Carry Am Go’ rapper also dated the 20-year old Delta-State born model and video vixen, Ada Beverly Osu. Although the former partners have denied it, there were reports that they were at some point engaged.
‘We were never engaged, we only dated and anyone could have had thoughts of taking it to the next level but that never happened’ the Babcock University undergraduate told Sunday Sun.
When NET later requested for further comments, he said,‘This is the part of my life that I will like to keep away from the public. If you notice, it was only a small crowd that were there because I needed to strike a line between my public and private lives. So please don’t ask me anything concerning my marriage’.
Multiple sources told us that 2Shotz and Precious met sometime in the last quarter of last year and ‘the romance took off immediately.’
21-year old Precious who is an indigene of Imo State lives abroad where she schools. NET gathered that the new bride is a final year Biomedical Science student of the University of Galway, Dublin, Ireland.
Although 2Shotz who is in his early 30s assured us that a later date will be announced for the white wedding, a source close to the family says that the wedding will come up later in the year when Precious must have been done with her studies.
A former member of the rap collection, Da Trybe, 2Shot has had over 10year’s stint in the music industry with about six solo studio albums to his credit beginning with his multiple award winning debut ‘Pirated Copy’
