CityNews reports that the governor gave out his daughter, Adaora, in marriage at his home town in Osuofia, Aguata Local Government Area, on Saturday.
The event was attended by several dignitaries, mostly from his government and members of his in-laws’ family from Onitsha.
Speaking on the event via his Facebook page, the governor disclosed that the traditional marriage was the first in his family in the past 142 years.
He revealed that this was because of the scarcity of female children in his family, until he broke the jinx, as God blessed him with four female children.
Soludo wrote: “In the presence of my family, kinsmen, friends, and my in-laws from Onitsha, I gave out my lovely daughter, Ifeatu Adaora Soludo, to her heartthrob after all traditional rites had been met and certified in line with the customs of the Isuofia community.
“I celebrate this historic event for two reasons. First, God has graciously blessed the larger Soludo family with another such marital union after 142 years (by my estimate).
“This is largely due to the fact that female children have been a rarity in the past three generations of the Soludo family. To break that “jinx,” God has mercifully provided me with four beautiful daughters, whom I celebrate every day.”
