A joke marriage turns into real wedding in Minna after man tells woman he wasn't qualified to marry her

A journalist based in Niger State, Muhammad Hassan Sonmaji, has narrated how an argument between a man and woman led to them getting married at a noodles spot in Minna.   According to Sonmaji, it all started when the young woman identified as Nana and Isah got into an argument during which he told her he wasn't qualified to marry her.  “On Wednesday night, an unusual incident that started as a joke reportedly turned into a real marriage at Sani Mai Indomie’s spot in Shiroro, Minna, the Niger State capital,” he wrote. "The incident began when a young woman identified as Nana and a young man named Isah got into an argument. "Isah reportedly told Nana that he was not qualified to marry her, but she challenged him, saying that if he was serious, he should immediately bring out N100,000 and pay her bride price. "To everyone's surprise, Isah put his hand into his pocket, brought out the money and handed it over to her. "As things unfolded, the tea seller volunteered to act as the bride's guardian (Wali), while another man named Ado offered to represent the groom's side. "A marriage ceremony was subsequently conducted. "However, when Nana's father was contacted, he reportedly rejected the arrangement and insisted that they should come to his house the following morning for another marriage ceremony. “Interestingly, the marriage was formally conducted again on Thursday morning at the bride's father's house, after which the bride moved to her husband's home.”    The post A joke marriage turns into real wedding in Minna after man tells woman he wasn't qualified to marry her appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
