Christmas in Nigeria is largely a mega fanfare especially in terms of food. Food is supposed to be cooked and doled out in hearty amounts. My family used to kill a ram and cook for the entire neighborhood. We'd hire a Togolese caterer to handle to cooking. I miss those days!
Nike is still a typical Nigerian 😂, the way she answers her questions. Living in western world will change all of that later. Wishing both of u a happy holidays.
Very interesting, even though I am Familiar with what Adenike share as a Yoruba son too but I enjoyed the way u guys put it together. God bless your union.
Merry Christmas to you too 🎉❤. I’m going to enjoy this video. I remember Christmas when I was a little kid when we’d go to 🇬🇭 also love my Christmas home 🇬🇧 but I still prefer 🇬🇭 it’s all about church service then street party with neighbours and friends
Our Santa is Father Christmas and we know it's costume - in the 80-s, my dad used to take us to see father Christmas at old Leventis, Bata, and Kingsway then in Lagos. And we were so wise that we regarded those Father Xmas as more original than the ones you'd see in public places, streets, playgrounds reason because those ones at Leventis, Bata, Kingsway were whites, and the other ones were by black man. Due to that, we would decline attending the local ones as my dad will most definitely take us to either or at least 2 of the popular ones. Anyone born in early 80s or late 70s will understand what i am saying.
We always got one main gift with lots of complimentary gifts to go with it. If the main gift was a Kodak camera you would get film, flash bulbs and batteries as the additional gifts.
@@chizobsatuwaogu1805 that's still hot for we who have lived many years in western world. I was in Nigeria December to January 2022-2023 i was asking when is harmattan they said we are in it now 😮 and i was feeling too much heat 😅😅😅
Most of us from the Southwest of Nigeria can relate to your wife's experience. It is almost the same for most of us 😀 Christmas is the most exciting festive season in southern Nigeria. For 'we the Pastor's kids,' we go to church the night before and on Christmas morning 😀 Christmas clothes and shoes, Christmas plates for our dishes, Christmas Jollof rice, Christmas Chicken/turkey, Christmas egusi soup, Christmas Pounded yam, and my Dad's Annual General Meeting with us, his children😀
@yomi7742 it depends on the family and the church patterns cause for me, as a strong Christian, I have never attended church on Christmas day or the eve. Secondly, my parents also attended white garments church but at age 15, I pulled out of that church to a pure Pentecostal church, and I never regretted that over the years.
Also, Nigeria there's no "clear line" for when people can tell you "Merry Christmas", as in expect people to tell you even after new years day. From my experience in a western country once 25th comes and goes, you won't be hearing it that often, let alone by new years eve. Not sure if the same applies in the US.
Yeah, Nigeria (Lagos) is too full during the Christmas holiday. The traffic is hell. I make effort not to have anything to do outisde my vicinity. Things are also more expensive especially for those living in the Islands. It's a lot of fun for those who have lots of friends, likes to party and go to concerts though
What I love about this couple is how they continually exchange and assimilate each other's cultures. This is so important for couples from different backgrounds. So enriching. Thank you for sharing this aspect of your lives. Enjoy your Christmas together. ❤❤
Father Christmas in Nigeria,
Merry Christmas and happy new year to wonderful couple
No one is talking about the fact that they look so much alike but just in different shade 😊
😆😆😆
😂😂
In Benin-city we used to visit Ekae amusement park during the Christmas season .
Such a beautiful couple❤ Happy Holidays!
Yess she said it all ..
Exactly how Christmas is now in Nigeria.. growing up was more fun during Christmas..
Thank you!

Nike is for sure a daddys girl. She mentioned “daddy” so many times

Nike is still a typical Nigerian 😂, the way she answers her questions. Living in western world will change all of that later. Wishing both of u a happy holidays.

Merry Christmas to you both ❤️🎉. I worship in C&S too since I was a little girl till now.
We called it father Christmas. Yes we had shoes and clothes as Christmas gifts.
I can relate to both sides since I have resided in both countries.
Merry Christmas And Happy Newyear to my Lovely Couple. Both of you are doing very well.
Thank you, Merry Christmas to you too!

Do the uncles and aunties give you guys money for Christmas in Nigeria?
Yes, they did.

Thank you for watching!
Easter is when Jesus rose 😂😂😂
I can relate with how exhausted you were hosting guests 😢
Hey beautiful 😍
Hi
Hello
There is no Santa in Nigeria please. It was Father Christmas
Father Christmas was Santa clause in Nigeria
Father Chrismas as Reverend Father!!! St Nicholas was a Reverend Father!!!
They're both the same thing, it's just that "Father Christmas" is the common name
