A wedding ceremony in Benin City, Edo State, that was meant to be a day of joy and celebration ended in anger and disappointment after the caterer failed to show up, leaving hundreds of guests without food.
In a video circulating on social media, the frustration amongst guests was evident as some of them opnely complained about being hungry as Mother of Bride in Tears.
By past 6 p.m., the caterer was still nowhere to be found, creating an embarrassing situation for the couple’s families.
The bride’s mother who was overwhelmed by the turn of events, broke down in tears as her friends surrounded to console her.
The incident has since sparked outrage on social media, with many users criticising the unprofessionalism of the vendor. Some have described the act as deliberate sabotage.
Holar_Folarin noted: “Omo. This is rubbish of the highest order. How would you be serving at a wedding and you’re yet to be there by 6pm in the night?? Are you possessed or what?? Or you’re the ex of the groom.”
Royal_Citizens penned: “This is a huge dent on that caterers rep in that locality, huge mess for the bride and groom’s wedding. He/She should be sued for damages.”
