Maryam Elisha, the fashion designer behind Rikaoto by Me fashion house, who is responsible for ruining both the wedding day of a bride and the 40th birthday party of Mercy Aigbe, by giving Mercy the bride’s dress for her 40th birthday shoot while lying to the bride about a mixup in courier services, has finally reached out to Mercy Aigbe and apologized to her.

In an instagram post, she wrote, “I am sorry I haven’t been in touch since the dress incident. I was actually out of town with limited internet access. I know I owe you an apology and actually I would like to do it in person and explain so we can resolve the issue. Neither you nor the bride deserved what happened. This is not my proudest moment ever. I feel so terrible for what this has caused you as well, especially seeing the comments and knowing that majority believe you were at fault here, which isn’t the case. This is so sad.

“Once again, please accept my apology. I will continue to apologise to you and my other client, the bride. I hope we can sit and talk about it. Thank you, Maryam Elisha.”

The designer also took time out to apologise to the bride, Lawrenta after the bride exposed her lies which she tried so hard to cover up for. In the post, she wrote, “Dear Lawrentta @rettypety, I apologise once again for the pain and inconvenience you have suffered these past days and I will continue to do so untill we talk I have tried severally to reach you privately all in vain that’s why I’m back on IG again for on this. I would appreciate if you would open a means of communication so we can resolve the matter. Thank you.”
