Why are tailors this wicked?<\/p>\n<p>@ali \u201cNot just the careless tailor! Mercy Aigbe deserves the dragging for working with a promise &amp; fail tailor. A woman of her class!!<\/p>\n<p>@clintonvice \u201cThe tailor\/designer sold someone else\u2019s dress cos mercy aigbe probably offered to pay more.In the process ruining another\u2019s special day.. Loyalty is very rare<\/p>\n<p>@platinumb \u201cIf Mercy Aigbe has any integrity she will take the photos down sha. A birthday shoot cannot be more important than your reputation. Even if she didn\u2019t know before, she does now. Remove yourself from the situation.<\/p>\n<p>@oneme \u201cI really don\u2019t understand what Mercy Aigbe\u2019s fault is in this tailor matter. Being a celebrity is both a gift and a curse.<\/p>\n<p>@omeyimi \u201cThe painful thing is that Mercy Aigbe might not have known about it but Nigerians are dragging her instead of the designer @ogbeniopa \u201cI don\u2019t know why y\u2019all are directing insults to Mercy Aigbe instead of d uncultured swine tailor. The painful part was, the tailor didn\u2019t respect ownership of a Bride\u2019s cloth on HER wedding day ffs.<\/p>\n<p>@emperorgwill \u201cplease now that she knows the background of the dress the honorable thing to do is take down the pic and apologize to the bride\u2026has she done any of this so far! The ans is fat NO\u2026so please allow us keep talking till it enters her head..<\/p>\n<p>@sketchmac \u201cThe designer is a crook,, if there\u2019s any one to be sued or arrested it should be the designer<\/p>\n<p>@yoonieg \u201cYou guys\u2026 I think if this whole story is true, the one at fault would be the designer. Its obvious @realmercyaigbe can afford any kind of clothe she wants so I believe she must have paid the designer aswell. Let\u2019s not insult her abeg.<\/p>\n<p>@bilkisu \u201cYou should take down these pictures. It&#8217;s not proper since you know the history behind this dress.This is so unfair. If you have a heart you should do the needful<\/p>\n<p>@azizlaura \u201cYou guys should stop bad mouthing mercy, it\u2019s d designers fault and not hers<\/p>\n<p>@shilperry \u201cBlame goes to the designer not mercy\u2026she should just apologies to the bride<\/p>\n<p>@becky \u201cThere is a possibility that the designer told mercy it\u2019s for someone else and she insisted on buying it x2 of the original price\u2026\u2026 both of them are fully involve in this! God have mercy<\/p>\n<p>@kaysmalz \u201cMercy may not have been in the know but the fact she still kept the dress and still has this post up means she\u2019s just as guilty as the tailor Smh!<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 31 updated by: -1 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Entertainment of Thursday, 4 January 2018 Source: dailypost.ng 2018-01-04 Mercy Aigbe in the &#8216;controversial&#8217; dress Nollywood actress, Mercy Aigbe has come under attack over her birthday outfit, which was shared on Instagram.
