From the perfect appearances and the projects they tackle, to the good they do for others and the community at large, we did a little digging and found the power couples in Nigeria. Take a look.
The singer and songwriter and the Nollywood starlet’s romance is anything but typical.
Their love story started during the 1990’s, before 2Face was the big star he is today, after Annie appeared in his music video for African Queen.

Their relationship took several detours, with other relationships and 2Face fathering children with other women, but it’s clear their relationship was meant to be.
2Face and Annie are both superstars in their own right, and when you put them together, they shine even more bright. They’re committed and supportive of each other, and always sharing their love notes to each other on their social media pages.
The singer and actress are a true Nollywood story – they met on a red carpet just before a glamourous event.
Their 2017 society wedding featured a guest list of Nigeria’s A-listers, in fact their wedding was the most talked about event of the year.
When they’re together, they radiate – their fashion style screams sophistication, fun and regal and their matching outfits always look so effortlessly put together.
