My sister is getting married at 60 after we’ve given up on her – Fred Amata | ] MarvelTvUpdates

Veteran actor, Fred Amata, has disclosed the marriage ceremony of his elder sister, Erumena, sharing that the family gave up on her at 60, since she has been unable to get married at a younger age.

The Nollywood icon said this in an Instagram post on Friday, stating that his sister had been ridiculed due to her inability to get married.

According to him, his sister was mocked by people who told her that she was too old and tall, and may end up marrying a man younger or shorter than she was.

Sharing his “testimony of faith”, Amata wrote, “Sister Mena grew up in a strict environment of high morality. She would develop to become an example of steadfastness and commitment.

“But morality and the emerging social environment can be challenging, for soon, her peers – young maidens – one after the other, all got married.

“Sister Mena found herself approaching her 40s; single, unmarried, staked against mountains of seeming impossibilities, and ridiculed.”

“And so it would continued year after year; from the 30s to 40s to fifties, and the ridicule became a torment. But she persevered.

“At the time she turned 60, we had all given up. But this Saturday 9th October 2021, we have the sounds of celebration, a covenant with the Almighty kept, and a manifestation of the awesomeness of the most high God.” He concluded.
