Beginning with an opening prayer, praise and worship, arrival of the new couple, the solemnisation proper, by Rev. G.G Uche, signing of the marriage register, intense prayers for the couple, benediction and ultimately the reception where guests were wondrously taken care of.
Bishop N.E Moses, who also spoke, extracting his message from the book of Genesis, admonished the couple to imbibe the virtues of patience, love, prayer, understanding and so on.
The groom’s mother prayed for fruitfulness. In her words, ‘Enobong will just be dropping…’

Thanking all those that attended very profusely, the groom prayed the Lord to continually bless all of them and their families. And also to take them to their destinations safely and soundly.
