Delta State Governor, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori on Saturday, attended the wedding ceremony of Miss Onesirosan Jane Ajuyah, daughter of a former Attorney-General of Delta State, Mr Charles Ajuyah, SAN and Mr. Precious Odilioba Odili.
The governor was represented by his Deputy, Sir Monday Onyeme, Ph D., at the wedding ceremony which took place at St. Cyprian Catholic Church, Oil Field Road, Effurun.
Delivering Homily at the ceremony, the Bishop of Catholic Diocese of Bomadi, Most Rev. Hyacinth Egbebo, described marriage as a vocation, a calling that demands faithfulness, patience, sacrifice, and grace.
“It is not sustained by emotions alone, for emotions may rise and fall, but true love is a decision, a commitment renewed daily,” Bishop Egbebo noted
He reminded the couple that every marriage, like the wedding feast at Cana in Galilee where Jesus Christ performed His first miracle, will have moments when “the wine runs out.”
He urged them to always invite Christ into their union, stating, “a marriage without Christ is fragile; a marriage rooted in Christ is unshakable ”
The groom’s father, Mr Ajuyah, on behalf of both families thanked the state governor and other guests for attending the wedding ceremony.
The event attracted other prominent figures, including the Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice in the state, Mr. Ekemejero Ohwovoriole, SAN, the Chief Judge of Delta State, Hon. Justice Theresa Diai, other Judges, Royal Fathers, religious leaders including Most Rev. Anthony Ewherido, Most Rev. Donatus Ogun, Rev. Fr. Bariki Nicholas, Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor, alongside several top dignitaries.
