Nigerian counsellor weds himself; invites friends to his “Holy Sologamy” in Abuja
A Nigerian man has decided to get married to himself and he released a wedding invitation card, inviting friends to his “Holy Sologamy”.
Sologamy is a marriage by a person to himself or herself, according to Wikipedia, and this is what Victor Ibeh, a popular Nigerian counsellor, is celebrating.
Victor, who has two Facebook accounts – one personal account and one business account, has updated both accounts to show that he’s married to himself. He graciously accepted congratulatory messages from his followers wishing him well.
The lawyer, who is known to promote self-love on Facebook, also released a wedding invitation that reads: “It’s love! You’re invited to the Holy Sologamy of Victor & Victor.”
The solo wedding is to hold on August 11, 2019, in Abuja, Nigeria.
The move seems to be the first of it’s kind in Nigeria, a rather conservative country. There have been records of people wedding themselves in other countries but this has always been looked upon strangely by Nigerians living in Nigeria.
