Nollywood actor Charles Okocha, popularly known as Igwe2pac, has surprised fans and the entertainment industry by announcing his upcoming wedding to the love of his life. The actor, who has two children from previous relationships, made the big revelation on his Instagram account on November 5, 2024.
In a heartfelt post shared on his Instagram, Okocha, who is also known by his stage name “Phenomenal,” shared adorable photos of himself with his fiancée. He also unveiled the hashtag #MICHARLES2024, which he confirmed would be used for the wedding celebration. Okocha’s fans and followers were quick to react, sending congratulatory messages and expressing excitement about the couple’s future together.
The announcement is particularly noteworthy given Okocha’s previous statements on marriage, where he had been vocal about his reservations. In an earlier interview, the actor had expressed skepticism about tying the knot, citing the high divorce rates among celebrities. “People you look up to are getting divorced… how do you want me to get into this marriage thing?” he had questioned at the time.
Okocha elaborated further, stating, “The truth is I have never been married in my life and I am a happy man. You and I know what is going on these days, you see a couple married for a couple of years and next, they are divorced. People you see as role models are getting divorced and when you see them you are like what is going on? These are people you have been looking up to and now they are divorced, how then do you want me to get into this marriage thing?”
Fans of the actor are eager to see how his wedding plans unfold, especially given his earlier candidness about the institution of marriage. The hashtag #MICHARLES2024 has already begun trending on social media, with many congratulating the couple and offering well-wishes for their upcoming nuptials.
