The aso-ebi for ladies was reportedly sold at N250,000 for the full set, while men paid up to N380,000 for 10 yards of fabric, underscoring the considerable spending involved in the festivities.

Though the exact cost of Iyabo Ojo’s personal traditional attire was not publicly disclosed, the high aso-ebi prices reflect the luxury and financial scale of the wedding, which blends Nigerian and Tanzanian cultures and includes multiple events across both countries.

The wedding has attracted attention not only for its cultural significance but also for its contribution to the textile and fashion sectors, stimulating demand for high-end fabrics and related services.

This event exemplifies how celebrity weddings can drive economic activity in Nigeria’s fashion industry, benefiting fabric producers, designers, event planners, and hospitality businesses.

Iyabo Ojo’s wedding celebrations, described as “shutting down Lagos,” demonstrate the growing market for premium traditional attire and associated wedding expenditures in the country.

Sharing radiant photos on Instagram, Iyabo expressed joy and gratitude.

She wrote, “This is the day the Lord has made! 🌟 I shall rejoice and be glad in it! 🙏 JP2025 is finally here! 🎉 God’s blessings to every single soul. 🙏 Thank you, Lord! #Gratitude #Jp2025.”
