A bride and other
guests at a wedding ceremony were left in shock after the groom failed to show
up for the exchange of marital vows in church.
Now the man is
blaming his absence on the devil.
Speaking with Amani
Newspaper in Tanzania, the groom Samuel John Mwakalobo, said that he did not
make his way to church to exchange wedding vows with his fiancée, Given Michael
Mgaya, because the devil made him to snub the function.
The wedding was
scheduled to take place in Mbeya area of the city and thereafter, a reception
was to follow at Mkapa Conference Center.
“Families of either
party are divided over the man’s behaviour. When the groom was asked why he
snubbed his wedding, he did not give a concrete reason. Earlier, he had shown
every sign of cooperation. I think he’d come across unappealing information
(about the bride) that made him change his mind,” a source told Amani
newspaper.
But when the media
reached the groom for comment, he said someone must have bewitched him to snub
his own wedding, maintaining he dearly loves his fiancee.
“I blame the devil
for what transpired. I don’t know how my partner perceived my action. Honestly.
I love her only; there’s no other woman who can take her place in my heart.”
A source said the
man has apologised for his action, and is currently in good terms with his
woman.
