A wedding in Benin City, Edo State, turned sour after the caterer failed to show up, leaving about a thousand guests without food.
By 6 p.m., frustration had set in, with the bride’s mother breaking down in tears as friends consoled her. In a viral video, guests could be heard demanding the caterer’s name to expose her online as a warning to others.
See some of the reactions below:
lifeinsolace said: “I miss the days when mothers used to gather to cook in the compound of the celebrant. There used to be a lot of food. It was cheaper and fun. Men were coupling the canopies and arranging the seats; making sure everything was set.”
olumax3028 noted: “Na women spoil am. They should deal with their problem. If I’m the father of the celebrant, I’ll just whisper to a few of my close friend and take them to one beer parlor. Order food and cold drinks for them. Let the women do what they like with their caterer.”
The incident has since sparked outrage on social media, with many users criticising the unprofessionalism of the vendor. Some 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.”
itsnrman stated: “Apparently the caterer realized the bride was getting married to her ex, so she sabotaged the whole ceremony.”
