“I got my dream wedding through a pandemic and the UG election saga. If that’s not God, then who? Our God is a God of promises. Whatever he promised, he delivered. God’s love for me was very obvious throughout my wedding journey. I will share the dope professional pictures very soon. At first I was reluctant about sharing pictures and videos, but after what God did, you’ll are in for some pictorial testimony,” She wrote on her Instagram.
