A wedding master of ceremonies (MC) has shared his disturbing experience at a ceremony in Anambra State, where the groom allegedly refused to pay for the bridesmaids’ accommodation after the event.
According to the MC, who narrated the experience, the bridesmaids travelled from a polytechnic in Delta State to attend their friend’s wedding. They arrived a day before to celebrate the bride’s shower and participated actively in the event.

However, after the ceremony ended around 7 p.m., the groom reportedly ordered everyone to vacate the hotel, insisting he would not extend their stay for another night.

“I was shocked. The groom was shouting that he wouldn’t pay for the rooms again,” the MC recounted. “How do you expect young ladies who travelled that far to return to Delta State by 7 p.m., knowing how unsafe Nigerian roads are?”

“The groomsmen that had rooms were saying, ‘If you’re going to sleep in my room, I go touch you o.’ That is shameful and dangerous,” he said. “You’re making people’s daughters vulnerable” because of poor planning and selfishness.

He added that some people who reluctantly offered the bridesmaids space in their rooms even refused to allow them to order food, claiming they wouldn’t pay for it. “Why are people wicked to asho ebi girls?” he lamented. “If you can’t take care of your bridal train, don’t invite them at all.”
