Banned: Nigerian pastor orders bride to remove eyelashes at wedding
A Nigerian bride recounted how her pastor told her to remove her lashes during her church wedding.
Jessica Okah, the bride, disclosed this incident on TikTok, mentioning that the pastor had raised the issue of her eyelashes before the wedding day
However, she said she had completely forgotten about it and thought it would be overlooked during the wedding.
She said, “What would you do if your pastor asked you to remove your lashes in the middle of your wedding ceremony? It was like a movie, but it was happening for real.
“After my husband’s family accepted me, that’s when my pastor realised that he told me the day before that I wasn’t supposed to wear lashes to the wedding ceremony.
“Let me not lie, I didn’t have a problem with it anyway, but truthfully, I forgot.
“He said before the service had to continue, I had to go and remove the lashes.”
She shared a video that captured the moment her pastor stopped the wedding proceedings over her eyelashes and resumed the ceremony after she had taken them off.
