According to www.mywedding.co.ug, there were people who were not impressed by the glamour and money poured at the wedding against the backdrop of poverty in the country.
Some of Ali's countrymen showed anger and bitterness when photos of the wedding were shared on social media.
“So what should we do. Tell him street kids are dying in Juba coz of hunger,” Alazi Brenda commented.
“He is an MP representative of his Constituency as People’s voice yet his voters are starving to death because of hunger. He could have bought 2000 bags of Sorghum to distribute to vulnerable Communities in his village would have made a great change in their lives than such a costly wedding,” Nyanabun Mawien Kok commented.
Cast aspersions on the lady
Some also cast aspersions on the lady getting married on her big day.
“Wasting of recourse as if she will not cheat on him,” Governor Gemenze said.
“May the spirit of children and women who starved to death in South Sudan make that marriage a big headache to that man so that they break up,” Ustaz Wol posted.
One person, however, argued that the daughter shouldn't be criticized for having hardworking parents.
Daughter of a businessman
“I think the message is clear”the daughter of a businessman”, why victimise her for the sweat of her dad. She deserves to enjoy since her dad struggled for that wealth,” Chol Gumnok.
Still, some people on social media argued that he should have brought his daughter’s wedding to Juba instead of taking it to another country.
“Let’s wait to witness a wedding by helicopter soon in Juba, us south Sudanese don’t need to be shown something like this… it’s a temptation to our Tycoons,” Lico Showman.
