"I am not in support of him proposing to her at that particular moment, the video clearly shows they are still in the alter and vows and prayers are still going for the couples, he shouldn’t have done that at that time, but the pastor saying she is my daughter you don’t do that, I am not aware of the relationship, w*tf!!! Who says you have an opinion about my relationship or who I choose to marry? That is what annoyed me more in the video….mtchew."

Pastor officiates wedding for father and daughter 27 years apart

Meanwhile, Briefly News previously reported that a man with the Twitter handle @BrotherMighty went on Twitter to talk about how his life changed in about three decades.

He said that the same pastor who officiated his wedding in 1993 did the same thing for his daughter many years after.

The man shared a throwback photo of the clergyman in a talking-pose as he was about slipping a ring on his wife's finger. In the second frame, the man's daughter and her partner kneeled as the same pastor prayed for them.
