A Nigerian gentleman shares how he was allegedly dropped from his friend’s wedding party just days before the big day, even though he had been involved in the preparations for months.
He explained that he had been actively assisting the groom during the planning stage, running errands, coordinating with vendors, and handling various logistical tasks.
He further noted that he had invested ₦80,000 in a custom suit for the event, motivated by their close friendship.
He expressed shock when the groom reportedly told him, a day prior to the wedding, that he would be removed from the groomsmen lineup and reassigned to oversee the drinks service.
He speculated that the change might have been prompted by the recent return of other friends from the United Kingdom.
Instead of confronting the groom, he chose to step back quietly, ending the conversation and opting not to attend the ceremony.
He elaborated:
I spent ₦80,000 to sew a suit for my friend’s wedding, and he replaced me with his other friends who had just returned from the UK.
We had been planning the wedding together for months. I followed him around the market to buy things, helped him book the MC and the DJ, and assisted with several other preparations.
Then, a day before the wedding, he called me and said I shouldn’t be among the groomsmen anymore. Instead, he wanted me to help look after the drinks during the event.
I had spent ₦80,000 on a suit simply because he was my good friend. And now he’s dropping me, probably because the other guys are richer.
I didn’t argue with him. I ended the call and never attended the wedding.
