A trending video that has since received mixed reactions from social media users captures the moment a bride’s brother returned the bride price and issued a stern warning to his in-laws, emphasizing that the family isn’t selling their daughter.
The bride’s brother was seen in the widely shared video asking for the family’s attention while holding out the white envelope containing the bride’s payment.
To indicate that they were not selling their daughter, he said the family would return the bride’s money to the groom rather than his family.
