Double Celebration in Delta State as Cynthia Eyezokumor and Micheal Wereyesigha Tie the Knot

Joy, music and thanksgiving filled the air in Delta State as two respected families came together to celebrate a union of love and faith. Cynthia, daughter of the late Andrew Eyezokumor of Isaba Kingdom, and Micheal, son of Chief Dick Ogharanuli Wereyesigha, the Amadiwei of Kurutie Community in Gbaramatu Kingdom, were joined in holy matrimony on September 26, 2026. The celebration did not end there. The next day, the groom's sister marked her own birthday, turning a weekend of joy into a double celebration.

Weddings in the Niger Delta have always been more than the joining of two people. They bring together families, quarters and communities, and this one was no different.

The bride, Cynthia, comes from the family of the late Andrew Eyezokumor of Isaba Kingdom, Beriyeware/Isounware Quarter. The groom, Micheal, is the son of Chief Dick Ogharanuli Wereyesigha, the Amadiwei of Kurutie Community, Omun Quarters, Gbaramatu Kingdom, Warri South West. Both families are from Delta State, and the marriage joins them in a bond of love and mutual respect.

For the groom, the day carried deep personal meaning. Micheal said it was a day he had long prayed and waited for, and he gave thanks to God for making it possible at last.

He also made a heartfelt promise to his bride and to the family they are beginning together: to be a good husband and a caring father to his future children.

The bride, Cynthia, shared in the moment, expressing her profound joy and happiness at the occasion.

The festive mood carried into the following day, September 27, 2026, when the groom's sister celebrated her birthday. She is the Okonoweibouesigha of Kurutie, Gbaramatu Kingdom. With the family already gathered in gladness, her birthday gave them one more reason to give thanks, making it a weekend of joy for everyone involved.

Marriage ceremonies like this one remind communities of the values that hold them together: faith, family and commitment. In a time when many people look for good news, a wedding built on prayer, gratitude and a promise of devoted partnership is a story worth telling.
