UNBELIEVABLE! BRIDE HUNTS FOR JOB....IN WEDDING GOWN

WALE ELEGBEDE

UNEMPLOYMENT boredom is really driving some graduates bananas or how else could the comic script played out in River State recently be best explained. It was a drama definitely beyond the crunch on plum oil firm job.

Bride rushes to exam venue
Calm of applicants writing examination for employment with the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) was jolted last weekend as a young lady simply identified as Nonye, in her wedding gown rushed straight to the hall and grabbed a seat and sweated it out with the rest over the questions.

National Daily Weekend gathered that the newly-wed bride did not care much for the negative reactions of people around when in the full wedding regalia she dashed out of the reception to partake of the NNPC's aptitude test, instead of proceeding straight to enjoy their honeymoon an option, most women in her shoes would have chosen .
The test which was conducted nationwide, attracted thousands of applicants who thronged out to try their luck in the NNPC employment process.

Lesson for job hunters
Nonye who just got the priced certificate of Mrs., after a hard work , shocked crowds when for job-sake she literarily abandoned her husband and other family members and dashed to the test center at FGGC Rumuokoro, Port-Harcourt, to write the exams.

Despite the steers and being hounded by the paparazzi who clicked away at their camera lenses, the bride remained undaunted and refused to be distracted. Some of the people around were said to have shook their heads in pity at how unemployment situation has made people throw decency to the winds and has now seemingly tended to rubbish the sacred institution of marriage, by trying to, though temporarily put asunder the bride couple shortly after they were joined to the applaud and admiration of all well-wishers.

Though the scene attracted so much attention, raised many brows as well as attracted criticisms , it indeed created a comic relief for the applicants some of whom castigated her action as being a mere “attention seeking” ploy. But quite a handful commended her resolute determination to be part of the exercise despite its coincided with her wedding.
