A Nigerian groom’s mother has set a new standard for wedding favors after giving her guests a rather unusual souvenir – live chickens! The unexpected gift has left many people talking and wondering what inspired her to choose such a unique favor.

A video posted on social media shows the mother of the groom distributing the live chickens to her guests, who were dressed in blue lace attire for the occasion. The guests were seen excitedly cheering and flaunting their new feathered friends, with some even getting assistance from event attendants to hold onto the squirming chickens.
While some people have praised the mother’s creativity and generosity, others have expressed concerns about the practicality of giving live animals as wedding favors.
