who is already 50, and who had never been married before, finally tied the knot
at a Redeemed Church branch in Abuja.
It was a day of joy and
bewilderment as the 50-year-old spinster hooked her man at the weekend in Abuja
at an event greeted with fanfare, given its uniqueness.
The happy bride in town, Omolayo Oyeyemi Oyewole is an
ordained Deaconess of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) of Fountain of
Living Water Parish, Tudun Wada, FHA Lugbe, Federal Capital Territory (FCT)
Abuja.
The solemnisation took place at RCCG Resurrection Parish,
Babangida area of Lugbe where the groom, a practising RCCG Pastor, Mike Gbade
Adetutu, exchanged vows with his bride.
Leadership reports that Omolayo
remained calm and exhibited high moral standards during her spinstership period
despite her age, hence she was ordained a Deaconess. While Adetutu was a widower
before their paths crossed.
According to a member of Omolayo’s parish,
Mrs Shade Areo, she described yesterday’s event as a “wonder wedding” made in
heaven.
“To God be the glory after much waiting, God finally put smiles
on the faces of Deaconess Omolayo. Indeed, God is Great!” she
exclaimed.
All attempts to speak with either the bride or her groom
proved abortive as they were carried away with the joy of the historic day in
their lives.
