There's nothing that would not be distributed as souvenir at parties by Nigerians. You would have received combs, hand fans of various types, kitchen utensils, mugs, wine cups, detergents and so on; you just name it and you have it. But some months back in Ikorodu an uncommon souvenir was given to guests at the burial ceremony of the late mother of a colleague. You don't want to guess! It was a plastic bottle filled to the brim with herbs for use against pile (Agbo jedi, as it is called in Yoruba language). What a gift!
Party souvenir took a new definition at the wedding ceremony of the daughters of Vice President Namadi Sambo on 1st December, 2012. It was reported that the souvenir shared at the ceremonies included smart TVs and dual sim phones. A sample of the phone is shown here:
The phone bears the name of the Vee Pee's daughter (Aisha) and her husband (Awwal) embossed on it as though it is the brand name of the phone. Heres wishing the wedded marital bliss.
