Bride cancels wedding on D-day
Meanwhile, Fox Nigeria previously reported that a Nigerian bride had called off her wedding on D-day.
A lady who claimed the bride was her friend shared the sad development on TikTok with videos of the couple’s public face-off.
The enraged bride refused to listen to appeals from the groom and others on their wedding entourage and declared that she was done. She was still in her white wedding dress, and another lady, her chief bridesmaid, also wore the same dress.
