We really should title this edition of Top 10 Photos from last week #BAAD2017 because our focus was mostly on our favourite celebrity couple’s wedding (they didn’t tag it the Wedding of the Year for no reason), and for that we make no apologies. Consider this our way of flooding your timelines.
You’re welcome.
However, if wedding pictures bore you, feel free to feast on Emmerson Mnangagwa’s swearing in as Zimbabwe’s new President or the Oba of Benin visiting with Buhari. It will be worth your while.
