Nollywood actress Ruby Ojiakor and her filmmaker husband, Moc Madu, experienced a profoundly emotional moment during their much-anticipated, star-studded wedding ceremony held on Saturday, May 31st.
What was expected to be a routine vote of thanks quickly turned into an unforgettable scene when Moc Madu was overcome with overwhelming emotion. As he began to address the guests, tears started to well up, and he found himself unable to complete his speech, visibly moved by the significance of the occasion and the presence of their loved ones.
A touching video from the ceremony has since gone viral on social media platforms, capturing this heartfelt moment as Moc Madu struggled to express his sincere gratitude to friends, family, and supporters who had gathered to celebrate with the couple. As he wept, the atmosphere became even more tender, with his best man and other guests quickly moving in to comfort him. The microphone was gently taken from him to allow him a moment of peace while the crowd shared in the emotional display.
This moving scene added an authentic and heartfelt layer to what was already a glamorous and joyous celebration, attended by several prominent stars from the Nigerian entertainment industry, making it a truly memorable event for everyone present.
The couple’s romantic journey captivated public attention earlier this year, when Ruby Ojiakor announced her engagement to Moc Madu on social media. In January, she shared an intimate video of their romantic proposal on Instagram, sparking excitement and anticipation among fans and followers.
Since then, the couple has received an outpouring of support and congratulatory messages across various social media platforms, with many admiring Moc Madu’s open-heartedness and genuine display of emotion on their special day.
