Instagram popular influencer Abike Arab aka Papaya Ex would not forget Saturday, April 19, 2025, in a jiffy. That day, as a wedding guest, she was ‘honourably’ disgraced and asked to step out of a wedding ceremony. Her sins? 


Dressed in a mini white gown with designer label accessories, Papaya Ex knew she would turn heads at the trending wedding ceremony between Priscilla Ojo and Tanzanian artiste Juma Jux

Priscilla is daughter to Nollywood actor Iyabo Ojo.


It was the white wedding, and as  expected, she took photos and newshound were all over her. Cameras, lights, clicks, and then, Papaya Ex walked into the garden themed event to have a seat.

However, Papaya Ex didn’t have another opportunity to ‘shine’ at #JP2025 last Saturday.

Kemiashefonlovehaven exclusively gathered that a few minutes after Papaya Ex sat down, a security officer walked up to her and must have informed her that someone wanted to see her outside.


She stood up, took her purse, and walked outside with the security personnel. Having done whatever she went to do, she proceeded back to the venue.

But the security officers at the entrance barred her from entering. They asked her to take her leave because the couple didn’t want her at the event!

As expected, she tried to cause a scene, but she couldn’t gain access to the main venue, and after some failed attempts, she left angrily.

Meanwhile, you wouldn’t find photos/videos of Papaya Ex’s activities at #JP2025 last Saturday’s white wedding just the initial ones she took at the staircase leading to the venue.

This was unlike the #JP2025 traditional wedding where Papaya Ex took photos with some celebrities and even posted where Iyabo Ojo and Toyin Abraham playfully asked why she attached Juma Jux’ s photo on her breast.


In fact, Priscy was seen instructing her best friend, Enioluwa, to collect the wads of naira notes Papaya Ex was pasting on them on the dance floor. Priscy didn’t allow her husband to touch the money,” one of the guests told Kemi.


The beautiful aso ebi (uniform) became a canvass for many designers to exhibit their creative prowess. Of course, the Internet in the Nigerian space melted.


For Papaya Ex, her uniform stood out and caused tongues to wag. A beautiful floor-length dress with the groom’s photo on her left breast wouldn’t go unnoticed, but she carefully placed the bride’s photo on her right hip.

Well, the influencer got some knocks online, while a few praised her creativity and sense of style.

During the event, the bride, Priscilla, jokingly called out Papaya over the placement of her husband’s photo.


“You put my husband for chest,” she said.


Papaya, laughing, responded, “I am sorry baby, I love you,” adding that her intentions were pure.


 Papaya later revealed in an interview with content creator Egungun of Lagos that she wore the haute couture to celebrate the love she has for Priscy and Juma Jux.


“Nigerians like to sesualise everything. If I had put the picture somewhere else, they would still complain that it’s close to my coochie,” she told the interviewer and even revealed she made the dress for N4.5 million.
