 SENATE president David Mark adopted daughter recently faced the ignominy of her bridegroom refusing to marry her on their planned wedding day after it emerged that she had been impregnated by another man

In a hugely embarrassing scene last Saturday at the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Cynthia Mark's fiancée showed up to tell guests that he was cancelling the wedding. Cynthia, an orphan, who had been adopted by the senate president, was left distraught and Helen Mark, her foster mother who had arranged an elaborate ceremony, was left totally embarrassed.

Due to start at 9am, the wedding was delayed for about two hours and when guests began wondering what was going on, drama broke loose. Cynthia, who worked for Mrs Mark before becoming her adopted daughter was apparently pregnant and her groom insisted he had not slept with her before, so was calling off the marriage.

As guests started getting impatient, the groom came out, took the microphone and announced to the surprise of all guests present that he is no longer interested in the marriage. It later turned out that the RCCG, that was supposed to marry them had conducted a pregnancy test for the lady 24 hours before the day and the result turned out positive.

With the groom insisting that he was not responsible for the pregnancy, Cynthia insisted she was not pregnant and went to do her own test in a different hospital. After her test, the result came out as negative, the RCCG called their doctor to do a second test but that again came our positive.

After all of the RCCG's tests came out positive, the groom insisted that he could not marry a woman who is pregnant for another man and a liar. Mrs Mark’s wife and her people begged him to forgive her and marry his bride-to-be but he stood his ground.

One source said he was particularly unhappy about the fact that while they were dating she did not allow him to sleep with her. According to the groom, Cynthia was trying to paint herself as a good girl but another man was enjoying what he was denied.

On the wedding day, she cried and pleaded but to no avail. When the wedding was called off, some guests decided to make the best of a bad situation, tucking into the delicacies that were provided.
