Mixed Reactions As Nigerian Woman Marries Her US-based Lover Via Video Call
The story of a young woman who achieved her dream of marrying the love of her life via mobile video call has garnered mixed reactions on social media.
Instead of letting the distance and delay get in the way of their holy solemnization, the couple decided to improvise by taking advantage of technology.
The two got on their mobile devices and exchanged their vows through a video call. Sharing the post, Bodexng said:
“This is true love as my pretty cousin got married two days ago to the love of her life through video call because her husband stays in the USA and couldn’t make it back for his own wedding.
How many of you can take this bold step knowing fully well that ya husband can’t touch nor sex you through video call? Kindly wish my pretty cousin with the bold heart and Happy Married Life.”

Since you claimed to be family, you should know better this wasn’t a wedding ceremony… plus if you need to post more you can request more photographs. Regards.

Normal thing for your Yoruba people, if the love is true as you say he would cross the 7 seas to make it to his wedding.

I can’t do this.
Doesn’t mean that the love isn’t sweet, I understand if it doesn’t sit right with some of you, most reasons for doing this are very logical ones.

So he’s in the USA and it’s true love, but if he’s in asaba he’s wasting her time.
