Charity, fondly called Cha cha, worked for Governor Rochas Okorocha as a maid for over 20 years and helped raise his five children. After everyone, including Charity herself, had given up hope that she would ever marry, Mr Hycenth met and swept her off her feet. She was wedded to the love of her life Hycenth, over the weekend and the entire Okorocha family came out to show love and support to her.
Photographer Michael Omoboriowo, who captured the touching moment wrote:
“A real life evidence of “Grass to Grace” was what played out in the life of Cha cha(charity) as she’s fondly called who served as a ‘maid’ to the family of His Excellency Owelle Rochas Okorocha, who helped raise all of the Governors’ 5 children right from childhood that two of them are now married, for whom they had to travel into the country to attend her wedding who Over 20years as being a part of the Gov.’s family and yesterday after even she had lost hope of marriage, was celebrated with the greatest honour ever, she was showered with gifts(A brand new car, Cash gift, Home utensils, etc courtesy Nneoma Okorocha) His Excellency even performed a song for the couple as he stood there tear-eyed in between them. It was a real atmosphere of emotion, love and gratitude in honour of the couple yesterday.
“The Governor and His family had a special dance in honour and appreciation of Charity, who while giving His words, the Governor recollected that this “maid” cha-cha fondly called returned a huge amount of money he misplaced after his campaign for presidency and charity found the said money and returned it to him after 6months the campaign period ran that he had even forgotten about the money, it was moment of deep reflection. ”
