Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that a Nigerian woman (@etzmhlzayomi) has made a video to show people how her mother-in-law always behaves towards her and her family at home.

Styled like the woman, the lady acted as if she was the mother-in-law who just came back from an outing.

In the video, she asked the wife if she had eaten, telling her not to be angry that she was not at home to cook for everybody.
