Hello Steemians, it's your girl @echuku, I believe you are all doing fine, for me, I am fine.

I am so delighted to participate in this beautiful contest in the Steem4Nigeria Community which talked about those life events/Activities happening in your neighborhood by @xkool24, thank you so much sir for always organizing amazing contests in this noble community. It is my pleasure to drop my entry and I do hope that you all will enjoy my post.

The life event that happened/Activity that happened in my neighborhood is the traditional wedding ceremony

On Saturday, 2nd of November 2024, my neighbor's daughter holds her traditional wedding according to the customs and traditions of our people(Eggon Culture)

A traditional wedding in our culture is a day set for a man who wishes to get married to a woman to bring all the items that are required of him so that traditionally the woman will be recognized as his wife.

So, the fiance to my neighbor's daughter brought all the necessary items that were required of him so that traditionally, the girl would be recognized as his legal wife.

The following are the items that were brought According to Eggon Culture and tradition for a traditional wedding. e.g locust beans, cooked goats, cooked chickens, pig, red oil, minerals, beer, etc

I am so happy that I was present at the traditional ceremony ground and I must tell you that it was one of the best traditional weddings I have seen throughout the years.

All the items were brought to my neighbor's family as expected and the whole environment was filled with love, happiness, joy, and beautiful celebration. It was indeed a beautiful day in the entire community and I was so inspired by the way the traditional wedding took place.

After the presentation of items, a group of Eggon traditional dancers started to display the cultural dance and that was how it was expected according to the customs and traditions of Eggon Culture. According to our people, the traditional dance is what makes the traditional wedding a complete and successful one.

Thank you all for your usual support, love, and time that you have dedicated to reading my post. I love you all❤

I want to invite @josepha and @simonnwigwe to join me in this amazing contest.
