Kingsley Okonkwo, a popular Nigerian Pastor and Relationship coach, has reacted to the viral video of a bridesmaid outshining the bride during the wedding ceremony.
WITHIN NIGERIA recalls that in the video, the bridesmaid was seen wearing a gown that exposed her cleavage. She also caught the eyes of the guests with her exceptional dancing skills and with her looks. In addition, it further provoked a guest to spray her money instead of spraying the bride.
However, Pastor Kingsley took to his Instagram account to react to this.
Here’s what he wrote;
“No disrespect to the parties involved (this is purely for teaching purposes)
These are my opinions, be free to have yours, as an elder I feel I should address for those that want to learn
To the bride-
- why are you keeping a friend that doesn’t “look” like she’s on same page with you, most of the other girls are decently dressed
- Even if she is your friend does she have to be on your train
- when she arrived half naked, you could have benched her
- She was not only half naked but was dancing with intention, for me – wrong intention
To the half naked friend-
- There’s something called decency, learn it
- There’s social maturity – allow people shine on their day and don’t divert attention even when you can, respect peoples feelings
To the spraying man
- Can we keep lust and foolishness till after the wedding?
- Even if she was your girlfriend, wife or sister, the timing was wrong
To other parents and elders at the event
- Hope one of you corrected the friend and corrected the situation
- Keeping quiet at such means approval and more people will think it’s OK
To the camera man
- Don’t be silly – stay focused if you still want your balance
To me and my IG fam
- What concern us in this matter….. Well good behavior is fast becoming a thing of the past, let’s preserve the small sense still left, Nigeria has lost so much let’s help where we can.”
