While commenting at the well attended reception, the groom’s mother expressed her joy, she said, “the first fruit of my womb is taking a wife, God has done it all, I am happy. If he does same for the siblings I will say thanks to Him.
“I am happy I got a good wife from a good home; I am happy I trained my son well to pick a good wife and I trust the choice he can make”.
Dr. Uchebo was filled with praises and assurance to God as she advised the unmarried who are wishing to be celebrated some day.
“Anything you want in this life, put your knees on the ground and pray to God, He will give you a good spouse, have patience and trust in God, He will do it for everybody. Since He did for an ordinary me, He will do it for everybody.”
While giving a vote of thanks, the groom thanked the guests and spoke of his joy to have seen the day come to fruition.
The ‘after parte’ was out of this world as Somto, wife, the mom and guests did not hide their elegant dancing steps to various tunes as commanded by the Disk Jockey.
