A Nigerian man, identified as Joshua Chukwuemeka Emmanuel, has chided couples who use the term ‘Solemnization of Holy Matrimony’ on their wedding cards despite having defiled the marriage bed.
Taking to Facebook on Tuesday, December 13, Joshua asserted that the term is only for couples who didn’t fornicate before marriage, and people should stop lying on their wedding invitation card.
“Solemnization of Holy matrimony is for people who didn’t fornicate before marriage. Stop lying to people on your wedding cards,” he wrote.

A Twitter user has sparked a debate on Twitter after he shared his opinion about premarital sex and it’s effect on marriages.
Taking to the microblogging platform, the man with handle @ElvisOkhifo, asserted that a relationship without kissing, petting, fondling and sex, is more likely to lead to a successful marriage than one where the couple engaged in premarital sex.

He tweeted:
“A relationship that thrives without sexual engagements is more likely to evolve into a beautiful marriage than one where fornication is the order of the day. If you can build a healthy friendship without sex, almost anything else can be worked on cause you’re seeing clearly”
However, his tweet has stirred divergent opinions online as some netizens disagreed with his stance, while others agreed with him and also kicked against sex before marriage.
