Good evening Nairalanders, please don't mind my Grammer, I'm not a grammarian
One of our colleagues at work invited all members of staff to her sisters wedding in Akure..

I felt pity for the nursing among us, their kids has been exhausted and now looking like hungry lion, I don't have money on me again, I spent the last penny in paying offering.., I felt like crying that moment, but had to hold myself, I have wasted my time all the way from Ekiti..

Typing.........

That is why they should have stayed at home with their kids. It was entirely useless traveling across states with innocent kids to attend the wedding of a colleague’s sister. Not even the colleague.

Sorry about your experience.

One of our colleagues at work invited all members of staff to her sisters wedding in Akure..

The whole staff bought the ASO EBI which was sold 3k, and also paid 2k for the transport which was deducted from my salary.
On the wedding day, we left Ekiti around 8am and got to Akure around 10:20am, the lady welcomed us and directed us to the church venue,the program has not started when we got to the church, they are still waiting for the groom to arrive, the groom set in around after 11, and the program lasted for about 4hrs, throughout the program the pastor was just seeking for donation to build his church, the floor of the church has not been plastered likewise the buglary and Windows, the pastor was just looking for a way to empty our pocket by seeking for donation.

What surprise me most was that when it was time for the couples to receive their wedding ring, they spent about 25minute before the groom showed up, I saw people running after the man as he was looking for a way escape , immediately when the program, we expected the woman to bring our food, I was shocked when the woman said our food is still on fire, they are just preparing our food around 3:00pm, I was boiling with anger, what kind of thing is this? I only took bread and beans in before leaving the house, there is no way of feeding us.

Be like say, nah only food you wan go chop ..........

In all my years in the private school system, I don't mind them removing my 1k, but I no dey attend.

Why?

There's always a story of fight or neglect/disregard towards younger attendees. Most people sef only attend for the food.

I have enough food at home. Make una go come back. Till today, I must really like you to attend your occasion, after an hour or so, I get bored and leave.

Sucre6:
Op when next you are going to an event like that, eat very well for house, I personally don't put food for mind while going to a party, I ones attended a friends wedding, spent a lot buying Asoebi, contributed more than 20k during donation at committee of friends meeting, traveled to a different state for the event, paid my transport and lodged, after every every, food finish for reception, e no reach me


I vex commot there go back to my hotel room, ordered for food, eat and use night bus begin go back Abuja very horrible experience, after that day, I first of all chop belle full for the house before I commot go any event

Once na Naija wedding and I am invited officially.

I no dey count on that oh,I go arrange one wrapper of 200h, for the guys wey head the serving of food and drinks.

Na we get the party be that. ��

Lastly get cash be moving to parties,all this complaints go turn to adventures. If you spray correct money, You must be served well well.

Arysexy:
Keep voting incompetent leaders that make you not to have money to buy yourself snacks.

I can't attend any wedding or burial with hope if eating. It's a privilege not a right if they offer you food

Please what made the marriage fake? I'm lost

there's a trick my mom taught me as a child.she used to be this owanmbe lover.na every party she dey go but she will put food flask inside the car with plenty of jollof Rice and chicken that she cooked so that of they don't serve food at the party,we will eat our own jollof in the car so because of that anytime I go to party I must carry my own food.i have attended a lot of weddings (especially the Igbo and Niger Delta weddings) where the food will not go round.they will say the food has finished Abi na only rice dey no meat or they'll be selective in the Serving of food (very poor at organising parties.na only decor and also ebi they spend money on.when it comes to food,I don't expect too much from them) anyway I will just jejely leave,I don't even bother getting angry or offended (you will still see some people fighting or insulting the waiters out of anger and hunger) lol Wetin consain me.its either I go to the car and quietly eat the food I brought or locate the nearest eatery to buy food.

You did not attend the wedding of your colleague but a sister to your colleague. Na you go find insult...

chii8:
Lolzzz..... before I go any party I must chop Wella for house.

Me too

Its my number 5 principle of life and code of conduct

exstreve:
Lol.

Going by your story, I assume you work in a private school and she's a fellow staff. I see absolutely no reason why you had to make such journey for a person you're not so close to. Anyways, lessons learnt, but you should have collected the bigi na, lol.

That is what happens when you feel you must attend every party.

Imagine they even bought Aso ebi of 3k, this is funny. Which one be una own? You ain't direct family to either of the partners, neither are you friends, neighbors, work colleagues or customers. You are simply co workers to the bride's sister , yet you went and bought Asó ébi, travelled all the way and still contributed hahahahahahahaha.

Don't be surprised some of them borrowed the money they spent on aso ébi, transport or contribution.

Wonder shall never end.

That is why it is good to have a financial backup when you are going to a ceremony e get why..

Single mother? and who is the new husband? hope its a single father like her and not a young man.

exactly.you have hit the nail on the head.

I remembered my former place of work.all of of my ex colleagues attended a wedding of one of my former colleague and the boss too was present at the wedding.he was expecting them to give him preferential treatment as say he be boss.he was expecting the fake respect people give him at work to give him at the party.the worst part was that when the party was about ending and he noticed they didn't bring food for him,he now told one of my ex colleagues to bring food for him and be following him at his back like one housegirl.in my mind I was so happy I didn't attend.

It was so bad that she said even the food was thrash.they served jollof Rice with plenty oil dripping under the plastic plate with burnt fried fish.she said she was even tasting sand Inside the food .to now crown it all they gave her hot Plastic bottle of Limca

I was just laughing inside me.the thing is if I'm not close to you I'm not going for your wedding and that's on period.it doesn't mean that I hate you or have anything against you,I will never inconvenience myself for people I know will not move any table for me when push comes to shove.

OP did you even read what you wrote? At least you could have edited your write up to save us the readers the stress of missing words and tenses.

No be we say make you travel from Ekiti go Akure for wedding.

Then why call it a fake wedding? When indeed the wedding held, at least they were joined in the church, just that they lacked coordination, time management and food wasn't done the way it was supposed to be.


Next time when you hear weddings outside your state, no go.

I say what? No, go.

I am so sorry but this your post is very funny. .
Sorry for the stress OP

Bread and beans is "only"... what would you have taken before? Bread, beans, eba, fufu,..all combined. Bread and beans only should survive one till night in this enduring economy.

Abi o.if it was their colleague doing the wedding that's understandable but her colleagues sister.orisirisi. to now worsen it she gave them bigi drink after the party very patronizing

iHart:
You did not attend the wedding of your colleague but a sister to your colleague. Na you go find insult...

be polite

SAMBARRY:
be polite

tomorrow he will attend a wedding of the brother of the inlaw of his colleague.

A lesson I learnt while growing up is before I leave my house for any party, I eat very well & leave very little space in my tummy . Even if you don't serve me food at your party, I'll probably not feel it

Vote out this evil party apc.
I wonder how someone will support a BAT....
A bat that is confused at being a bird or an animal...
A bat that poos from the mouth...
A bat that comes out generally at night..
A bat that may call itself a bird but flies without a.known direction..
A bat that sucks blood.
A bat that sleeps upside down.
So for all of you supporting Bola ahmed tinubu, consider yourself bat-eaters. You have not just failed the society, failed your generation, believe me you have failed YOURSELF.

I hope you're not a teacher teaching people's innocent children, with the bullshit you wrote up there

It'll be very disappointing if you are a teacher and don't know where to put a ''full stop'' or a ''comma' in a sentence.

Please note that sentences end with ''full stops/periods'', and not ''commas''.

Oga professor, didn't you read from the beginning of the write-up that she is not inclined properly on writing in a more comprehensive format? ("Grammar" according to her word)

Was the information not conveyed when you read it?

If any correction(s) where needed, it should have been carried out in a responsible manner.

If I were you, I would have demanded for excuse and use the #3000 for aso ebi to entered one better joint and order for better kanda with beer and have my peace. I don't even like party talkless of going to another state for party. Nowadays, I select where I go, once I noticed that the place will not add value to me, I stay clear. Why will I spend my money and time and take such aimless journey all in the name of it might be my turn.

Pele ooo

We all felt dejected, our town visiting still far from Akure, we have leave on time because of the security situation in the country, we don't know when food will be ready..

We all left the church in annoyance, they have cancelled the reception,. You have to take care of your guest separately.

Our drivers face is not accommodating at all, we did not allow him to finish the Baron,
His driving was reckless throughout the journey,he was driving with anger, we cautioned him, but remain adamant, we got home safely..
It was later we got to know that the husband was forced to do the wedding, none of his family members came to the wedding, the lady is a single mother.

The woman came to school on Monday , and we are all expecting her to apologise to us but to my greatest surprise, she started yelling at us that she does have any fault, she complained we should have waited for the food to get ready before leaving, she did not even say a single sorry..
She gave everybody a bigiapple, but I returned my own drinks back to her, i requested from the social committee to give me the #500 I contributed..
It's not all ocassion that we should always attend...

Sorry o but you shd eat before attending functions. Never hope on such food.

That said abeg how una do Lagos to Ekiti in 2hours?

Why are you surprised? She already mentioned ‘Ekiti’. So, you shouldn’t expect much from her. People from that region can graduate with first class but will still be unable to write properly in English.

Hilarious I must say

What if she is teaching Mathematics or one of those science subjects?

You ended up disgracing yourself and your guarantor on a public forum
