According to sources the venue for the wedding was at God’s Glory Ministry, Jos, where the man refused to take his vows and left his family members, friends, colleagues and associates in wild confusion.
Aplang was quoted allegedly to have said before walking out of the Church that he had planned 10 years ago to disgrace his supposed bride on their wedding day.
An eyewitness, Miss Julian Dogo, narrated how the groom gave shocking answers to the pastor while he was taking his marital vows.
“Aplang was asked on the altar by the pastor, do you take Judith as your wife for batter for worse? Then he replied with a No.”
“The pastor put the same question to him, and he replied, ‘Pastor, I heard you clearly, and understand English very well and my answer is still No’
“Then the pastor said to him, but you are well dressed and came ready for this wedding, and he replied, ‘sorry, I made up my mind 10 years ago to disgrace her on our wedding day’
As soon as he said that, he walked out of the church, and was followed by his best man and his friends who drove out of the church premises,
However, Judith, the supposed bride, collapsed inside the church and was taken to an undisclosed hospital around Plateau State Polytechnic in Jos
Mr. Peter Sani, best man to Aplang, described it as very “embarrassing”.
He attributed his friend’s behaviour to some sort of diabolism, adding that the action was not ordinary.
“Aplang is my childhood friend, Judith has been a friend and sister too, and he dated her for over 12 years.
“I was in the church to serve as a best man, and also as a fulfilled man to witness their wedding, but I was shocked and highly disappointed with what happened in the church today,” he said.
“This is not ordinary; Aplang will always confide in me on any issue if he had the plan to walk out on the altar he would have told me.
“What happened today is unimaginable, I came out of the church weeping profusely,” he added.
