OAP Gbemi Olateru-Olagbegi, Recounts How She Handled A Badly-Behaved Father Of The Bride While She Served As The MC Of A Wedding

Popular OAP, Gbemi Olateru-Olagbegi, has shared on her X platform on how she dealt with what may have been an embarrassing situation for her had she not known how to comport herself with some dignity.

She wrote on X:

“I wonder if most people who have “difficult” loved ones are aware. I remember MC’ing a wedding and the bride was apologizing to me ahead for her father’s behavior.
I didn’t get it until I stepped into the hall. He would march to the front , grab the 🎤 and yell at vendors !
The band was playing and people were enjoying the music. Guests were still arriving so I let them play. He marched to the front , grabbed the mic from the lead singer and screamed “WHERE D HELL IS THE MC??? GET OVER HERE NOOOW OR YOU’RE FIRED” 😂
I smiled. Walked over, took the microphone from him and said “Everybody clap for daddy” 😀
He was 1) Surprised to see a female wedding MC
2) Was annoyed that I didn’t flinch at his behavior. I wasn’t shaking because he was shouting.
Instead I was smiling. 😄”
