A Nigerian woman, Erumena Amata has shared the interesting story of how she found love at age 64. Her marriage went viral last week after her brother, actor Fred Amata shared her emotional story on social media.
He revealed had said her story was a testimony of faith.
Amata wrote, “Sister Mena grew up in a strict environment of high morality. She would develop to become an example of steadfastness and commitment.
“But morality and the emerging social environment can be challenging, for soon, her peers – young maidens – one after the other, all got married.
Sister Mena finds herself approaching her 40s single unmarried staked against mountains of seeming impossibilities and ridiculed.
You too old, you can no longer Marry, You too tall you will Marry a short man. You too old even if you find a man, You would be Older than him.
Give what God gave you to Man oh, before you give it to worms*
Yes Ridiculed for her steadfastness and tenacity holding on to her convictions.
And so it would continue. Year after year from 30s to 40s to Fifties… And
The ridicule became torment. But she persevered
By the time She turned 60… We had all given up.
But this Saturday 9th October 2021.
The sound of Celebration, a convenant with the Almighty Kept. A manifestation of the awesomeness of the most high God.
ERUMENA… The Almighty says to the world.
THIS IS MY BEAUTY…”
