However in spite being ridiculed, the filmmaker said his sister persevered. Amata disclosed that his sister is getting married today October 9 at the age of 60, after they had all given up hope.

The Almighty Continues to show His Beauty and Awesomeness with Cause for Celebration.
My big Sister Mena’ s is a testimony of faith.
Named Erumena meaning This is My Beauty,
Sister Mena grew up in a strict environment of high morality. She would develop to become an example of steadfastness and commitment.
But Morality and the emerging social environment, can be challenging for soon her peers young maidens one after the other all got married.
Sister Mena finds herself approaching her 40s single unmarried staked against mountains of seeming impossibilities and ridiculed.
You too old, you can no longer Marry, You too tall you will Marry a short man. You too old even if you find a man, You would be Older than him.
Give what God gave you to Man oh, before you give it to worms
Yes Ridiculed for her steadfastness and tenacity holding on to her convictions.
And so it would continue. Year after year from 30s to 40s to Fifties… And
The ridicule became torment. But she persevered.
By the time She turned 60… We had all given up.
But this Saturday 9th October 2021.
The sound of Celebration, a convenant with the Almighty Kept. A manifestation of the awesomeness of the most high God.
ERUMENA… The Almighty says to the world.
