It was a scene to behold at Enugwu-Ukwu in Njikoka Local Government Area when visually impaired couple, Miss Clementina Nwamaka Obidike of the Anambra State Ministry of Youth Empowerment and Entrepreneurship and Mr Christopher Nnamdi Mbogu of the Ministry of Basic Education were joined in a Holy Matrimony at Christ Holy Church International.
A journalist who witnessed the ceremony reports that Mr and Mrs Mbogu who were visibly very happy found love in each other despite their Disability.
They advised others with disability not to feel less of themselves stating that if their love life became a dream come true, others in similar situations can also find love.

The bride’s brother, Mr. Francis Obidike blessed the couple praying God to sustain their love while Mr Matthew Mbogu a younger brother to the groom advised them not to involve third party in their affairs as he also prayed God to bless them with fruit of the womb.
Earlier in an admonition, the Pastor in charge of Christ Holy Church International, Enugwu-Ukwu district, Pastor Emmanuel Jideobi noted that love, patience and understanding are the bedrock for successful marriage urging the couple to involve God in their family affairs at all times.
Signing of the marriage register, exchange of marital vows and prayer for the couple were major parts of the ceremony.
