DID HE GO TOO FAR?

Hey guys. 

So I saw this story on my FaceBook Timeline and decided to share with my nice extraordinarily wonderful viewers. *mwah*

This is a true supposedly true story about a recent wedding that took place in Surulere, a town in Lagos, Nigeria.

This was a huge wedding with over 300 guests. After the wedding at the reception, the groom got up on stage and took the microphone to talk to the crowd. He said that he wanted to thank everyone for coming, many from long distances, to support them at their wedding. He especially wanted to thank the bride’s and groom’s families for coming and to thank his new father-in- law for providing such a fabulous reception.

 To thank everyone for coming and bringing gifts and everything, he said he wanted to give everyone a special gift from just him. Taped to the bottom of everyone’s chair (even the chairs of the wedding party) was a manila envelope. He said that was his gift to everyone, and told everyone to open their envelopes. Inside each manila envelope was an 8×10 picture of his best man having sex with the bride (He had gotten suspicious of the two of them and hired a private detective to trail them weeks prior to the wedding).

After he stood there and watched the people’s reactions for a couple of minutes, he turned to the Best man and said "F— you!" he then turned to the bride and said "F— you!" and then he turned to the dumb founded crowd and said, "Thanks, I’m out of here." He had the marriage annulled first thing that Monday morning.

While most of us would have broken off the engagement immediately after finding out about the affair, this guy goes through with it anyway as if nothing was wrong.

His revenge:
1) Making the bride’s parents pay over N620,000 for a 300 persons guest wedding and reception.
2) Letting everyone know exactly what did happen.
3) And best of all, trashing the bride’s and best man’s reputations in front of all of their friends, their parents, brothers, sisters, grandparents, nieces and nephews, etc.

 Did the guy go too far? *raised eyebrow*

COUNTDOWN!!!

20. Nigeria

The best of the worst, Nigeria ranks 123rd overall on the Legatum Prosperity Index. Decades of corruption have squandered great oil and gas wealth, while new concerns involve sectarian violence. In this picture soldiers stand guard as people walk by near the site where a suicide attacker drove a car bomb into a Christian church in Kaduna, Nigeria, on October 28, 2012.

19. Mozambique

The former Portuguese colony ranks 124 overall. Its standing in years to come may be bolstered by massive new discoveries of natural gas offshore, which are to be exported as LNG.

18. Sudan

Now split into South Sudan and North Sudan after a protracted civil war, the two young nations continue to fight over oilfields and pipelines. Ranked 125 overall, but 138th in Safety and Security.

The disputed 2010 presidential election in Ivory Coast descended into a brief 2011 civil war as opposing factions vied for control. The nation ranks 126 overall. 

16. Guinea

The west African nation ranks 127th overall, but a surprising 44th in Personal Freedom. 

15. Sierra Leone

Sierra Leone (rank 128) has bountiful natural resources, especially diamonds, titanium and bauxite, as well as one of the world's biggest natural harbors. Blood diamonds financed both sides of the nation's civil war, which ended in 2001.

14. Angola

President Jose Eduardo dos Santos has been in power since independence 37 years ago, and has promised to ramp up rebuilding of the country after its civil war, which ended a decade ago. 

13. Liberia

Life appears to be improving somewhat under President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, though some are concerned about the appearance of rampant looting of Liberia's forest resources. A bright spot: Liberia ranks 68th in Social Capital, but 130th overall.

12. Iraq

The scars of war remain here in Fallujah, once considered the most dangerous city in Iraq for the U.S. military. Some residents still pine for the stability of the days of Saddam Hussein and have lost faith in the nascent political system.

Nuclear-armed Pakistan remains a restive hotspot. Osama bin Ladin was killed there last year. 

10. Ethiopia

With 91 million people, Ethiopia is the second-most populous nation in Africa, after Nigeria.

U.S. President Barack Obama has approved aggressive unammed drone attacks on Al Qaeda leaders 
in Yemen, located south of Saudi Arabia.

8. Zimbabwe

Robert Mugabe has held ultimate power in Zimbabwe since 1980. Opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai was arrested and severely beaten by government thugs in 2007. He has since been elected prime minister in a shaky power-sharing agreement with Mugabe. Zimbabwe ranks last in Governance and Economy.

7. Togo

Togo - overall rank 136 - used to be at the heart of the west African slave trade. It was a German colony until the end of World War I. It is plauged by political instability and human rights violations by security forces.

6. Burundi

Like neighboring Rwanda, Burundi has suffered decades of sectarian violence between the Hutu and Tutsi people.

Chad ranks 139th. Here, a woman brings her baby to be examined for signs of malnutrition at a walk-in feeding center in Dibinindji, a desert village in the Sahel belt of Chad, Wednesday, April 18, 2012. An influx of Chadians returning from Libya after the conflict there has exacerbated social tensions. 

3. Afghanistan

Decades of war have left many Afghans in abject poverty. Here, Afghan travellers including a woman in full burkha journey on a horse cart along a street in Herat on December 30, 2012. 

2. Republic of the Congo

Congo ranks 141st on the Prosperity Index. Here, a Congolese girl carries a box of food aid at the Mugunga III camp for internally displaced persons, which is often raided by armed men.

1. Central African Republic

The Central African Republic ranks 142 on the Prosperity Index, in last place. It ranks at the bottom in Education. Despite significant mineral resources, CAR is among the poorest nations in the world and rebels are seeking to overthrown Pres. Francois Bozize.
