Nigerian Bride Cancels Wedding Weeks to Ceremony, Reportedly Chooses Abroad-Based Suitor
Abuja, Nigeria – April 10, 2025 — A planned wedding set for April 22, 2025, between a Nigerian lady and her fiancé, Isaac Chijindu Victor, has reportedly been cancelled, sparking widespread reactions on social media.
The story, which surfaced on X (formerly Twitter) via the handle @talk2veee, alleges that the bride-to-be abruptly called off the ceremony after being introduced to a man based abroad—allegedly by her own mother.
The tweet, which included the hashtags #WeddingCancelled and #PrestigeSignature, read:
“Lady cancels White Wedding that should have taken place on 22nd April 2025 with Isaac Chijindu Victor (Prestige Signature) as she allegedly said that the mom had already prepared another man living abroad for her.”
Although the identity of the bride was not disclosed, the development has drawn mixed reactions, with many expressing sympathy for the jilted groom and others questioning the influence of family in marital decisions.
The groom, reportedly associated with Prestige Signature, has not made a public statement regarding the situation.
While the full details remain unverified, the incident underscores the challenges many couples face in balancing personal decisions with familial expectations—particularly in culturally complex societies like Nigeria, where family involvement in marriage arrangements remains significant.
As of press time, attempts to reach either party for comments have been unsuccessful.
