The wedding video of Sylvester Ofori and Barabara Tommey has surfaced online following the gruesome murder of Barbara 27, by her husband Sylvester 35.
The two were wedded five years ago in a beautiful ceremony at a plush estate in the United States.
The beautiful Barbara met Pastor Sylvester Ofori at a church service. Their bond strengthened when they learned they shared the same birthday.
However, their serendipitous union was not meant to last, as five years after, the two were embroiled in divorce proceedings.
Ofori is reported to have followed Barbara to her place of work and shot her in front of the building.
The gory act was captured on security cameras, which led to the subsequent identification and arrest of Ofori by the Orlando police.
Although there have been reports of him having been physically abusive in the marriage, it is unclear what triggered the pastor to murder his wife on that day.
The church over which Pastor Sylvester Ofori presides, Floodgates of Heaven International Ministries say they are devastated by their Pastor’s actions.

“We are all devastated. I have no words. I’m just devastated,” a representative of the church said.
She indicated that their church has not been meeting for in-person services recently as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, however prior to that, she “didn’t see any signs there was trouble” in their pastor’s marriage.
“I’m at a loss for words right now. I can’t even think about it,” she said, remembering the pastor’s wife as “a very beautiful person, inside and out.”
From the video, Barbara and her siblings had gone to her marital home to retrieve some documents.
However, the peaceable mission turned violent after, Sylvester had attacked Barbara in the process even in the presence of her siblings.
Her enraged brother had stepped in and restrained Ofori from doing any more harm to Barbara, keeping him away from her the whole time.
In the ensuing argument, Barbara’s brother accused Sylvester of being a fake man of God. Ofori in response called Barbara a witch, and told Barbara’s brother angrily: “If I don’t kill your sister then I am fake.”
Barbara was told to report the matter to the police, but she refused, saying she didn’t want to “escalate the issue” any further.
Unfortunately, a few days later, Sylvester carried out his threat when he shot and killed Barbara Tommey several times in front of her place of work.
The heinous crime was recorded on surveillance cameras on the building.
Sylvester is currently in police custody and is facing charges of first degree murder.
