Church members and wedding guests in a church in Port Harcourt engaged in a verbal fight when the pastor refused to wed a couple right away because they arrived 5 minutes late to church.

Despite pleas, the pastor went to his office and declined to wed them at the appointed time.


He left the couple waiting for one hour and allegedly said he will wed them at his own convenience inside his office, not in the church as expected.

As some point the bride breaks down in tears while the groom tries to console her outside the church building.

Those defending the pastor clashed with those who were on the side of the heartbroken couple.
Eventually, the couple got tired of waiting for the pastor and got another person to serve as their officiating pastor.

Since the exchange of vows couldn’t hold in the initial pastor’s church, they did that in a hotel.

“Wedding done back at the hotel with a stand in pastor,” the photographer later gave an update.

There's more to this story. Abi the babe na Pastor's ex, probably using the timing as excuse. But on the other hand, in as much as it's in Nigeria and by a Nigerian we dnt take time serious and more so traffic in Nigeria can be funny at times. But that does not mean the Pastor shud see himself as God.

Majority of blacks don't keep to time. They believe in this mentality of "Africa time". The pastor would have showed mercy though.

There're so many possible angles to this story

The storyteller could be lying as to the true reasons behind the pastor declining to wed the couple, or the length of time they were late.

The couple may have chosen to get married against the pastor's (selfish?) wishes.

It's likely the pastor requested both couple to come to his office for some private admonition before the wedding and the crowd misinterpreted that as the pastor wanting to wed them in his office

Even if the story is as they say, the fact is they were late (whether 5mins or 5hrs), and there's nothing disastrously wrong with a shepherd wanting to discipline the flock under his supervision.

Did the stand in pastor even try to reason with the original church pastor before going ahead to wed the couple behind a hotel? In as much as it was almost abundantly clear that the pastor was overreacting, there's still the very slim chance that he was acting under the instruction of the Holy Spirit.

There’s something sinister about the pastor’s move and I’m inclined to believe there’s more to this story. So the pastor didn’t factor in traffic in this our obodo Nigeria ?? Are they supposed to sleep in the church?

Normally,the Pastor suppose to consider them as well...man of God must have pity in heart towards one another ...this is so bad..so members may even quit the church.

The pastor is stupid, church wedding is just ceremony
The main thing is the traditional marriage
In the Bible Christ never joined couple and in that wedding, he was just a guest and never took active part in the wedding of the couple.

Pastors are just enslaving church members with human doctrines.

Maybe that girl na the pastor babe or they not settle the guy well, or he has advised the girl against the guy before.

With time we will know his reason, as 5min is not enough reason. Abi he never go late somewhere before?
