The Deputy Minister was said  to have married Noella Seidu, a final year law student at the  University of Ghana. She is the daughter of former National Democratic  Congress (NDC) Member of Parliament (MP) for Wa Central M.A. Seidu.<br \/>\nThough  it was an Islamic wedding ceremony, it is unclear if the groom is a  Muslim or intended to be one very soon. Our information had it that  Noella, a slim, dark, tall and sexy-looking, is a product of University  of Ghana where she read political science and did her national service  in the News Department of Metro Television in Accra. She was also used  for one of the numerous NDC adverts in the run-up to the 2008 elections.<br \/>\nNoella was said to have lost an election at the Law Faculty  when the students got to know that she was the girlfriend of the  loquacious Okudzeto. It is also gathered that the former MP, whose  daughter got married, is an Ahmad while his wife and daughter belong to  the Fountain Gate Chapel of Rev. Eastwood Anaba. It was based on the  father\u2019s religious affiliation that the ceremony was performed in  accordance with Islamic tradition.<br \/>\nDaily Guide sources also  revealed that the couple had early planned a most ceremony but when the  aircraft conveying Okudzeto and his entourage allegedly arrived at the  Wa airstrip, it broke the usual monotony and silence of the town,  drawing so much attention, which intimately led to the wedding becoming a  funfair.<br \/>\nOther invited guest also travelled in a long convoy  from Accra to Wa for the life-time ceremony. Deep throat sources say the  minister and his bride left for London for their honeymoon soon after  the ceremony, which attracted a number of NDC members within the Wa  municipality. Checks at the Ministry of Information confirmed the Deputy  Minister had not reported to office since Monday. Speculations have it  that he has taken his annual leave, lending credence to suggestions the  he is indeed honey-mooning outside the shores of Ghana.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Credible information reaching the Daily Guide newspaper indicates that Deputy Information Minister, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa over the weekend emplaned to Wa, the Upper West regional capital, on a flight with his friends for a secret wedding ceremony, which ended up being the most topical subject in town.
