Ifunanya
Igwebuike, a final student of Federal Polytechnic, Oko in Anambra State, did the unthinkable on her wedding day by
calling off the marriage already arranged by the two families!
The wedding that supposed to take place on Saturday, 3
January, 2015 and guests invited to witness the ceremony at St Patrick Catholic
Church, Umuchu in Aguata Local government, Anambra State, were shocked when she
refused to show up to tie the knot with Ekene Uzoigwe.
Ifunanya later
sent a message to the Parish Priest, Rev. Father Lawrence Maduagwu, that she
was no longer interested and asked him to cancel the wedding on alleged that
she could not go ahead with the marriage because she was a graduate unlike
Uzoigwe whom she claimed was a school drop-out.
The dumped
groom, Uzoigwe said he proposed to Ifunanya for marriage and she agreed on
condition that he would send her to school, which he agreed. He said he had
paid her bride price and she was part of the whole wedding plan and he even
gave her parents N160,000 to prepare for the wedding, besides other
arrangements and expenses incurred on the wedding and reception.
“If she had informed me, I would not have made arrangements.
We had already cooked food and bought drinks for the wedding,” he said.
He said when he
contacted her parents, they said they would not force her and asked him to come
and take back the money he gave them to prepare for the wedding.
Uzoigwe is a
business man based in Abakiliki, the Ebonyi State capital.
