Dubbed as “Kasalan ng Bayan 4.0,” the event held recently at the Ozamiz City National High School Mini Gym, was the fourth mass wedding solemnized by Mayor Sancho Fernando Oaminal. 

Each couple also received a wedding cake, giveaways, P1,000 gift check, P10,000 cash from the local government and another P5,000 cash from Rep. Henry Oaminal.

“Kamo magkahiusa ug kung unsa man gani ang mga challenges, mga kalisod, mga problema nga muabot sa inyong kinabuhi dili man gyud na mawala naay panag-away, paglalis ug aduna'y sitwasyon nga lain-lain ang inyong opinion, hunahuna pero hinumdumi ninyo nga karong adlawa inyong i-commit ang inyong kaugalingon sa inyong partner and whatever happens always remember that you can always do more together than separately,” the mayor said.

While the lawmaker said the exchange of vows legitimized the union of couples – many of them have been living together for years and have children. “Make your relationship not useless, make your love endless and not useless, ang inyong panaghigugmaay labi na karon nga krisis, nga kamo legal na kinahanglan nga wala’y katapusan ika nga,” he said, adding, the official marriage of the parents would greatly benefit their children.

Couple Felipe and Kim Peja thanked the City Government for providing all of them free wedding and assistance for their family. Oaminal has legitimized the union of more than 600 couples since the start of his administration.

The Kasalan ng Bayan is an annual activity of the local government offered to the less privileged unwed couples who are local residents. (SMRN)
