A Nigerian lady has taken to
her social media page to share the reason she has decided not to attend her
cousin’s wedding.
According to the lady, her
cousin (the bride-to-be) told her she won’t be her maid of honour because she
is too fat.
In her words;
“My closest cousin, the
closest thing I have to a sibling, has officially confirmed I won’t be her maid
of honour cos I’m just too fat for a maid of honour role. Have to lose some
weight before December or no maid of honour duties for me. I shan’t be
attending the wedding” she tweeted on Sunday, June 5.
“My family will swear I’m wicked and no-nonsense because I reward meanness with the same vim level. Begging me to attend for what? So I’d damage the aesthetics?
Nah, I’ll stay home, press my phone all day, happy married life Couz!”
She also accused her family of
bullying her due to her weight.
She wrote;
“These people who are supposed
to be my people have bullied me all my life for genes I have absolutely no
control over. If not for strong self-will, I’d loathe my body. Each time I eat,
I stress over how much I’m eating, over how much I gain just from eating. Hei
mbanu!”
