Wonders shall not end. 419 prophecy. The son is an adult over 21 years; in fact he is 33 and fast approaching 34 years. He does not need any one to chose a date. The mother is not compelled to attend, choice have to be made.
everything about OBJ is controversal,it is obvious that OBJ and his wife are not in good terms.
