Late Nigerian actress Rachel Oniga is back in the spotlight after her daughter married the love of her life.
The bride was observed crying hysterically at her wedding, dampening the otherwise joyous event.
In the Instagram video, the bride can be seen crying as the MC at the traditional wedding sings a prayer hymn for moms to have long lives.
Rachel Oniga’s mother could not keep back her emotions, and other older women at the gathering flocked to comfort her.
Rachel Oniga died in July 2021 at the age of 64, apparently from a cardiac condition.
