The groom’s mother, Barrister (Mrs.) Evelyn Obioha speaks…
How would you describe your son, Chimaobi?
He’s my beloved son. He’s intelligent, obedient and caring. He has never disappointed his family. That’s why I’m proud of him.
As he gets married today, what do you wish him and his wife?
Marital bliss, long life, prosperity and the fruit of the womb.
Have you accepted Koko?
Koko is my daughter. I now have three daughters.
You must be lucky to have the high and mighty at your son’s wedding?
It’s the Lord’s doing and marvelous in our sight.
One last word for the newly-wed.
I love you both.
