It is no longer news that the singular or most important ambition of most Nigerian girls is to "grow up and marry". Often times, girls who remain single after their 20's are looked down on and treated as lesser humans. Some Nigerian churches have now taken to exploiting single ladies.
According to Linda Ikeji Blog, the pastor of a branch of Winners Chapel in Enugu during a church service asked all the single women to wear wedding dresses to church if they want to get married this year.
The following week, single women stormed the church service in wedding dresses. Some bridal houses came to church that day and rented wedding dresses to women who couldn't get one before then. Fully clad in wedding dresses, the women were asked to sit in front and receive special prayers with seed sowing involved.
Nairaland also did a report on a church in Onitsha, Anambra state where single ladies flock to on Friday night for weekly prayers to hook-up young men. The church which is known as known as Canaan Land Deliverance Church a.k.a Land of Miracles demands that the single girls seeking marriage take their clothes off in an open church so that they can break marriage curses.
The single ladies are also compelled to pay a consultation fee of N50,000 before participation in the church rituals and a miracle fee of N200,000 and above depending on the caliber of husband the woman hopes to attract. Payments can be made at once or in installments, ladies who pay installmentally are forced to take oath with the pastor using their menstrual blood which the pastor will collect & keep. If the individual refuses to pay, she will be visited with barrenness or instant death.
During the service, the Pastor anoints the foreheads & private parts of the single ladies proclaiming that any man who comes in contact with them that the Olive oil will stick to them and marry them.
