Akinade “Gaisebaba” Ibuoye: Gospel Artiste & Culture Architect
Gaisebaba, real name Akinade Ibuoye, studied Economics at Obafemi Awolowo University before launching a career in Afro‑fusion gospel music. He has released multiple albums, such as Gaisebaba and A Decade After, and continues to merge Scripture-rich lyrics with contemporary beats. In 2025, his music topped gospel charts, earning accolades for “Peach remix No Turning Back II” featuring Lawrence Oyor
How Their Love Unfolded: Patience, Purity & Purpose
They met at a youth seminar, Steve Harris’s “Business of Your Talent”, in October 2012, where Funto volunteered at registration and Gaise spotted her bubbly spirit immediately. Conversations started via BBM, and what followed was a six‑month commitment to wait, without contact on social platforms, reflecting their shared call to purity before romance developed in mid‑2013
After deeper spiritual alignment, Gaise proposed on February 12, 2014, crafting an artwork of Funto and surprising her at her workplace with flowers and a ring. He had become certain she was “the one” after she decided to join him in purity, a conviction born from prayer and aligned convictions.
Marriage: A Journey of Growing Together
They wed on November 23, 2014, and have since raised three children while continuing to serve in ministry and business. Early challenges tested their relationship, like mismatched expectations and emotional triggers, but they navigated through with prayer, open communication, and a collective drive for harmony. Punch.
Gaise openly acknowledges Funto’s spiritual depth and leadership, while Funto credits Gaise’s selflessness and prophetic gift in guiding their home.
What Makes Their Union Thrive?
-
Faith Before Fun: From the onset, both built their relationship around spiritual values rather than temporary attractions.
-
Intentional Patience: Their waiting season became a symbol of discipline, a decision they both affirm was critical to their marital strength.
-
Transparent Unity: Though they don’t operate a joint account, they know each other’s financial decisions and maintain complete openness, symbolising trust beyond title or assets.
-
Conflict Resolution by God’s Wisdom: Gaise said most times he apologises first and emphasised they resolve disagreements without third parties, leaning on scripture and humility.
Final Thoughts
Funto and Gaisebaba represent more than a celebrity Christian couple; they are a living example of waiting well, marrying intentionally, and building a family with God at the centre. Their partnership shows that love rooted in faith and mutual respect can flourish quietly but powerfully.
At LoveLifeNG, we celebrate their journey as proof that marriage can be beautiful when built on purity, prayer, and purpose.
