Super Eagles midfielder, Ogenyi Onazi and his wife, Sandra Ogunsuyi, are presently savouring their marriage bliss in their base in Italy after staging a wondrous wedding in Lagos.
Can you conjecture? Before you wrack that brain, let’s quickly tell you what many won’t tell you about the Italy based player. Unknown to many, Onazi is a skillful pianist. Before his wedding, which took place couple of weeks back in Lagos, we caught sight of the Lazio player adroitly playing the piano with his band in Jos, during a rehearsal session ahead of his wedding.
On his wedding day, the footballer conspicuously brought to the fore his musical talent as he joined his old band members in serenading his wife, Sandra Ogunsuyi and the guests.

Those who witnessed that august moment were scores of Super Eagles’ players who came out in their titillating attires to witness the occasion. The Super Eagles’ line –up included assistant captain Ahmed Musa, Odion Ighalo, Kenneth Omeruo, John Ogu, Moses Simon, Brown Ideye, Anthony Ujah, Raheem Lawal, Obinna Nsofor and Sunday Mba.
Also in attendance was the embattled Nigeria Football Federation President, Amaju Pinnick, former goalkeeper, Dosu Joseph and other federal and Lagos sports officials.
The impressive ceremony was held at the Faith Tabernacle, while the grand reception followed at the Ruby Gardens, both in Lekki, Lagos. Before staging the white wedding, the couple had earlier held their traditional wedding in Benin City.
