"The happy moment my daughter Gina longs for will happen tonight. As a father, I pray that Gina becomes a faithful wife," he said in his latest posting on Twitter and Facebook today.

He also hoped that his daughter would always be happy with her husband.

Yesterday, spokesperson and representative for the prime minister's family at the engagement and marriage ceremonies, Datuk Seri Jamil Khir Baharom said the marriage solemnisation ceremony would be held today at the prime minister's official residence in Seri Perdana, Putrajaya, and would be conducted by Najib himself.

Nooryana Najwa, 27, completed her studies in Bachelor of Science in Foreign Service at the Georgetown University, Washington, United States of America, in 2011 and is now employed with a venture capital company.

She met Daniyar, 27, who is from Kazakhstan when both were students in the United States.
