Edo First Lady hosts reception for couple left stranded by Marriage Court Registrar*
The Edo State First Lady, Mrs. Betsy Obaseki, at the weekend, organised a wedding reception for Mr. and Mrs. Abel Eromosele Ugiagbe, the couple whose marriage ceremony was disrupted by the absence of the Registrar of the Federal Marriage Registry, in Benin City, Edo State.
Mrs. Obaseki said her decision to host the reception for the couple was to ease the pain they went through following the disappointment on their wedding day, adding that the compassionate nature of Mr. Abel Eromosele Ugiagbe who felt bad that the registrar lost his job drew her closer to the couple.
She noted, "After I confirmed the report as true, I called my friend and wife of the Minister for Interior, Mrs. Aregbesola who briefed her husband about the development. The Minister apologized to the couple.
“I really felt for the couple, especially the bride and decided to host them for a reception to make up for the disappointment on their wedding day.”
The First Lady commended the groom for his compassionate nature, adding, "He told me that ITV came around and saw the situation and they just expressed how they felt but never knew the report will go viral and will lead to the registrar losing his job."
The Chairman of the occasion and Chief of Staff to Edo State Governor, Hon. Osaigbovo Iyoha, congratulated the couple on the success of their wedding despite the disappointment they experienced over the failure of the Registrar of the Federal Marriage to show up for the marriage.
He urged guests at the reception to see every disappointment as a blessing, adding, "This is the first official state wedding reception held in this hall in Government House following the disappointment from the registrar who ought to join the couple on May 28th, 2021, but failed to show up and it became a topical issue after the story went viral on social media.”

What is the nature of Femi Adeshina's job? It's Shehu Garba that has been issuing statement on behalf of the presidency.

I really do miss Abati.

Gbajabiamila has always been an enemy of pdp lawmakers in the house of rep,most especially the out going 7th assembly. If Pdp want to be relevant in decision making of the house,in the next assembly. they should use every possible means within their reach to vote against Gbajabiamila. This will be a pay back time.

Foolish legislator,Nigeria state legislators ve sold their birth right to the state governors. They foolishly rejected a constitution amendment that will grant them their financial autonomy.

Oshiomhole ve not realized his mistakes,he should stop campaigning for apc candidate.he should let d candidate speak for themselves, that was why pdp swept most of d house of rep nd senate seats in edo state. His anointed puppet speaker of edo state house of assembly lost his election for d oredo federal constituency.

Edo state judiciary ve been on strike for d past 4 months.

Happy new year to y"all
