A video making rounds online shows the dramatic moment a father broke into tears after his daughter “returned his surname” at her traditional wedding ceremony.
In the viral video, the host, often referred to as “Alaga” in the Western part of Nigeria, instructed the bride to present an item to her parents during the wedding ceremony.
Following this, she explained to the parents that what their daughter handed over symbolized her father’s surname, as she would no longer bear his name and now adopt her husband’s surname after the wedding.
This revelation broke the father’s heart and he let out an audible sob and started crying in the presence of everyone at the event, including the groom’s family.
Watch the emotional yet hilarious video below,
