The daughter of the late Nollywood actress Rachael Oniga couldn’t hold back her tears as she remembered her mother on her wedding day.
Dressed in a stunning traditional bridal ensemble, the bride, who bears a striking resemblance to her mother, was surrounded by family and friends during her traditional engagement ceremony.
The emotional moment took a poignant turn when the anchor sang a song to honor mothers, causing the bride to break down in tears. Many attendees felt the song was insensitive given the recent loss of the bride’s mother.
Social media users expressed their disapproval of the song choice, questioning why such a song was sung when they knew the bride’s mother was no longer alive. Some called it unnecessary and urged sensitivity in such situations.
