Apostle Johnson Suleman, President of Omega Fire Ministries, has expressed his disapproval of those who spend exorbitantly on their weddings. Addressing his church members, he said that money is not the problem, but rather a lack of wisdom. He believes that even a small amount of money can be managed well if one is wise.
The Man of God went on to say that he would not use ‘Asoebi’ (traditional wedding attire) or chief bridesmaids and groomsmen if he were to get married again. He believes it is a waste of money to use these people and that he himself wasted money buying an outfit for the chief bridesmaid. He said that it is unnecessary, as his wife can simply hold her own gown.
Apostle Johnson also mentioned that some people have 25 Asoebi girls and 30 groomsmen who do nothing but follow the celebrants around. He said that many people who got married nine years ago are still waiting to be paid for their Asoebi.
