A Nigerian man has been left in a heartbreaking dilemma after discovering that his pregnant wife’s genotype is incompatible with his own, following their traditional wedding ceremony.

The distraught husband, whose identity remains undisclosed, shared his agonizing predicament with social media personality Odo Godfrey Chikwere.

He recounted that the shocking revelation came to light as they were preparing for their white wedding ceremony.

The couple’s hopes of smoothly transitioning from their traditional wedding to a lavish white wedding hit a roadblock when the priest insisted on checking their medical test results.

Unfortunately, their distress grew when the tests showed that both the husband and his pregnant wife had the AS genotype, making them carriers of the sickle cell trait.

Due to this revelation, the priest refused to officiate their white wedding.

According to the man, his mother had advised him to proceed with the wedding, believing that faith could alter their circumstances.

He partly wrote …

“She is AS and I’m also AS. The priest said he won’t consent to such a marriage. I have done traditional rites. This lady may die if I leave her now. My mother said I should go ahead that God can change anything.”
