A newly wedded bride frowned and kept a mean face at her traditional wedding ceremony when her husband was showering naira notes on her.

The first impression one would get from viewing the video is that perhaps the bride is not happy about her marriage and does not want to be married to the man who was seen happy and smiling.

However, some Instagram users shared insights into this and revealed that it is a tradition in Ijaw where the bride frowns whilst the man sprays money on her and she is supposed to frown throughout until she is satisfied with the money sprayed on her then she can smile.

See reactions below;

It’s a Tradition in Ijaw. The bride frowns while the groom starts spraying, whenever she’s satisfied with the money sprayed, she starts smiling

It’s the tradition of the ijaws I think, one of the kingdoms in Delta state, the bride doesn’t smile until enough money has been presented/sprayed to her satisfaction, it means the man is able to take care of her

If only you all knew it was a cultural thing amongst the ijaws, you all won’t be projecting hatred without getting facts. She will smile when she’s satisfied with the amount of money her husband to be sprays her. This is how it is done in their culture

Someone said it’s the tradition of ijaw people, the groom has to make the bride laugh before he can stop spraying the money

Ijaw tradition will humble you. The longer you frown, the more money you get. It’s a beautiful experience I must say. Las las you can give your husband small😄
