Edo Church Abort Wedding Over Groom ’ s Refusal To Remove 50k Designer Shoes

What was planned as a day of joyful union between a couple
(names withheld) weekend turned awry as the spiritual
leader of a fast growing miracle church in Benin City, Edo
State capital declined to wed a couple following the refusal
of the groom to pull his Italian designer shoes before entry
into the church.
Worshippers, friends, family members and well-wishers who
stormed the church were disappointed as the groom, who
claimed he bought his shoes for N50,000, was adamant as
he shunned pleas from his bride to comply with the rules of
the church.
According to a source in the know, the church is reputed for
miracles which have led to the influx of new converts from
residents in the vicinity. It was learnt that the groom’s father
who was expected to prevail on the groom shunned all effort
to ensure that the wedding took place.
Meanwhile, as the drama raged, guests and well-wishers
who were seated under the canopies for reception at the
same venue were lavishly entertained by hired caterers as
the confusion between the church’s overseer and the couple
continued.
The beautiful bride who refused to be consoled over the
incident wept profusely before church members, and the
groom soon followed as tears freely ran down his cheeks.
A senior pastor in the church who does not want his name in
print said: “It is quite unfortunate that the groom is
adamant.
“We expected that the bride who is our member must have
educated him enough.
It is not new among our members.
Politicians, business moguls who often visit comply with our
ways of worship and I must say that what we do here is
divine and biblical.”
