The dumped
groom
Oh dear, a bride in Anambra State has dumped
the man she is supposed to marry on their
wedding day because she says she is a graduate
and he is nothing but a school dropout. But the
shocker is this; the said groom was the one who
sponsored her through school. Also find out how
she broke the news to him after the cut. Report
by PM News.
A final student of Federal Polytechnic, Oko in
Anambra State, southeast Nigeria, did the
unthinkable when she snubbed her groom on her
wedding day and called off the wedding already
arranged by the two families.
The wedding was 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 Ifunanya Igwebuike refused to
show up to tie the knot with Ekene Uzoigwe.
After several hours of waiting, she 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.
Ifunanya 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.
Rev. Maduagwu had no option than to inform the
groom and the guests that were already seated at
the church hall that the wedding had been
cancelled.
This caused an uproar in the church as guests
who expressed shock over what happened
started trooping out of the church.
Narrating what happened, 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 after she gained admission, he was
financing her education and they agreed to wed
during her final year.
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.
Uzoigwe said she did not inform him about her
decision to back out of the wedding until he got to
the church only for the priest to inform him and
the guests about the cancellation of the wedding.
“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 said he was still shocked about what
happened because he did not quarrel with
Ifunanya before the fateful day.
He said he also made sure she was comfortable
by making money available to her while in school.
Uzoigwe is a business man based in Abakiliki, the
Ebonyi State capital. He met Ifunanya at their
home town, Umuchu, where he proposed and
sent her to school.

In my opinion? Yes! She could have used him until she had everything she needed! I am sure she wasn't finished but God has protected that fool from being used continously.
