“I met her at a wedding in Port-Harcourt in the year 2000. She was part of the bridal train. My mind was blown away when I sighted her. Thereafter, we became friends. Somehow, we lost contact with each other and later, met again in 2002. The rest is history. We got married in 2008. Though we do quarrel, the most important thing is that I have decided to spend the rest of my life with her, for better or for worse, until death do us apart,” Agwu once said in an interview.

“I’m not scared about female fans snatching him from me; instead, he should be the one to be scared. If he allows them to do so, that means he doesn’t belong to me,” Ibiere said in a recent interview.

Tall, gorgeous and introverted, Ibiere holds a Masters degree in Oil and Gas from Robert Gordon University, Scotland. “My husband can be funny but at the same time, he’s annoying. He knows how to get me annoyed. I really do not know what attracted me to him. We were friends for a while, before we later got married,” Ibiere said.

Elsie Uzoma (Basketmouth’s wife)

“At first, I was like, ‘is this guy for real?’ but when I saw the serious look on his face, I knew he wasn’t joking and I thought ‘Oh my goodness, how do I handle a celebrity?’ I would say my attraction to him was based on the utmost admiration for his talent. Yet I gave him a tough time while he was wooing me.

Well, it was a girl’s thing then to give a guy a hard time. Also for me, I just wanted to know how far he could go, if he really was sincere. Besides, I was not so sure about falling for and dating a celebrity,” the pretty Elsie, who is currently a director in Basketmouth’s company revealed.

Speaking on how he met and married the pretty woman, the ace comedian avowed: “I was promoting my very first show in front of her hostel. She strolled past and said ‘Basketmouth, I love your jokes’ and walked on. She did not make wooing easy. She started by giving me a wrong telephone number and eventually when I got her real number, she was a bit rude and dismissive.

“Meanwhile, I had assumed that because I was Basketmouth, I would get a better treatment but it just did not work with her. I used all my skills and with an enormous level of communal efforts from my friends. She broke up with me like three weeks after we started dating.

“I admit, I messed up, learnt my lesson, and had to start all over again. She was a tough nut to crack and right now, I do not regret putting every part of me into making us work,” the comedian once said of his wife in an interview.

I was invited to perform and when I looked across the hall, there was this lady laughing her heart out and very jovial too. That caught my attention. She was genuinely happy, calm and excited too. I saw all that before I went on stage to perform.

“After performing, I was leaving with my friend, Emeka Smith, a comedian, when the same lady walked up to me and said ‘I love your confidence on stage. I am just seeing you for the first time and your confidence is out of this world’. I thanked her and we exchanged numbers. Fortunately for me, she was waiting for a cab with her friend like I was, so I got a cab that took us all. The cab dropped them at home, while my friend and I continued our own journey home. We just clicked. It was a match made in heaven,” the comedian who tied the knot on March 27, 2011 disclosed.
