Bride cancels wedding as groom insists on living in family house
Bride cancels wedding as groom insists on living in family house
Florence Friday, a bride-to-be reportedly called off her wedding over the groom’s refusal to leave his family house.
The wedding, which was slated for Saturday, May 4th, 2024, in Farin Lamba, Vom, Jos South Local Government Area of Plateau State, was canceled before the event took place.
According to reports, Florence, the bride-to-be, asked for N30,000 from her groom-to-be, Morgak James, on March 28th to reserve her wedding gown. Morgak, unable to provide the full sum, offered N15,000 and promised to complete it the following week.
Florence, furious, insisted on receiving the entire sum by the end of the week, threatening to cancel the wedding.
It was reported that two days later, Morgak managed to gather the N30,000 and sent it to Florence to proceed with the booking. However, this resolution led to another condition from the bride-to-be.
It was also gathered that Florence reportedly requested Morgak to move out of his family house and get his apartment.

According to a source close to the couple, after much deliberation, they agreed to stay in the family home for two months after the wedding before getting their apartment.
This arrangement was agreed upon before Morgak began the introductions, church signature, and payment of the bride price.
However, Morgak was taken aback just before the big day when he received a phone call informing him that his bride-to-be had canceled the wedding because he had not parked out of his family home.
The source further revealed that Morgak had invested significantly in the wedding.
Despite this, Florence’s family had canceled their introduction dates more than three times for a variety of reasons, including visiting a pupil at school.
Our sources also stated that her family once canceled their introduction a day before the wedding.
Speaking on the cancellation of her wedding, Florence said, “I’ve never seen a responsible man who would bring his bride into his family house for his parents to take care of or claim he doesn’t have money while planning his wedding.”

200,000 repentant terrorists surrender, drop arms in North East – CDS
200,000 repentant terrorists surrender, drop arms in North East – CDS
The Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Musa, has disclosed that about 200,000 repentant terrorists have so far dropped their arms and surrendered to troops in the North East, noting that the twin strategy of kinetic and non-kinetic operations was responsible for this achievement.
The CDS made this known at the Security and Justice Symposium organised by the Office of the National Security Adviser (ONSA) in collaboration with the British High Commission, which began at the National Counterterrorism Centre in Abuja on Tuesday.
He disclosed that the theme of the symposium, ”Securing Peace, Ensuring Justice, Protection, Conduct, and Accountability,” speaks volumes about the deluge of security challenges the armed forces and security agencies are facing.
His words, “All the challenges we are facing today have to do with fairness, equity, justice, and accountability.
“There will not be peace without justice, equity, fairness, and accountability. In our operations, we are conducting both kinetic and non-kinetic strategies, which have to a large extent yielded significant successes, and we want to particularly thank the National Security Adviser for his great support in this regard.
“Nigeria is going through so many challenges, and we feel we’re able to address this, and everybody has a sense of belonging. A lot of the security challenges we are having, we are sure, will go down. I want to thank the National Security Advisor for all the support he’s given us, both the kinetic and the non-kinetic.
“We have said it; the kinetic aspect is just less than 30%. The non-kinetic has a lot to play. The non-kinetic, because when you have democracy, people must have the evidence of democracy. As long as it tells people to sleep well and be peaceful, and they are hungry, their children cannot eat, and all this creates more problems.
