Just a few years before Nigeria got her independence, a Nigerian couple were captured in London having a grand wedding and proudly displaying their culture.


In a viral video clip, which has been said to be the wedding of Christie Bola and Matthew Daniel, the couple can be seen dancing and merrying with many Nigerians present as they tied the knot traditionally in London.

The clip was shared by Whatsupibadan on Instagram and it shows the glorious moment two lovers united in the presence of family and friends to become one.

What is most interesting is how the couple and their guests displayed the beauty of the Yoruba culture, ignoring their location. Even as they celebrated their love in London, their hearts were plugged into their culture which was richly displayed.

If there were a vote for best throwback moment, this video clip would make an excellent choice as it shows how love, culture and celebration is ingrained in the DNA of Nigerians. Yorubas, even as far back as 1954.

Why abroad ....means of wasting our money

How is it our money?

Were the couple or their parents colonial officers or politicians in the already established regional government of the Western Region just 2years earlier in 1952?
