A Nigerian lady has stirred controversy online after unveiling her version of the traditional wedding attire worn by Priscilla Ojo at her glamorous wedding to Tanzanian singer Juma Jux.
The high-profile wedding ceremony, which took place on April 17, 2025, in Lagos, featured numerous standout moments — one of which was Priscilla’s breathtaking first outfit that left social media buzzing.
Motivated by the viral attention surrounding the dress, the lady decided to recreate the look using more budget-friendly materials, showcasing her own creativity and style flair.
In the trending video, she proudly displayed her finished product, which remained faithful to the colour palette and overall design. Rather than using the luxurious asooke fabric as in the original, she opted for glossy satin, lending her dress a more reflective and accessible feel.
Her efforts have since drawn mixed reactions from netizens. While many appreciated her boldness and originality, others heavily criticized the result, describing the outfit as poorly executed and unnecessary.
Some social media users saw it as a playful tribute, while others accused her of wasting resources on what they considered a substandard imitation.
