Shortly after she posted, concerned individuals flooded the comments section with their thoughts and advice, as shown by @mayo_3246.

Nigerian man invited to family meeting

Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that a Nigerian man found himself at the center of a social media storm after receiving an unexpected invitation to a family gathering.

During this gathering, elders issued a rather unusual ultimatum: he must either impregnate or marry a woman within a tight three-month deadline.

The man’s video, captioned by @tennie_xoxo reads: “Dem invite me to family meeting,” captured the tense exchange among family members.

In another development, Legit.ng also reported that a gentleman paid a visit to his girlfriend’s home to formally express his intention of marrying her.
