A swarm of bees swoops down on guests at a traditional wedding in Okija, Anambra, and begins attacking them at the venue.
An eyewitness told the story to an Instagram blogger about the incident.
He and his team had traveled to Anambra for a traditional wedding gig, according to the reporter.
The elders refused to give the lady the palm to search for her husband among the crowd during the event, as is customary in the culture.
The reason for this was that the event had been scheduled on the same day as the town’s market day.
A swarm of bees was reported to have charged the location and began attacking the guests, disrupting the event.
A video posted online shows the guests running while swatting at the bees that followed them.
The eyewitness wrote:
