A Nigerian man recently shared a humorous WhatsApp exchange with his sister, who had sent him an impressive 33 photos of her son, Chibuike, to celebrate his upcoming birthday. She requested that he share the images on his social media pages, leading to a lighthearted exchange that has since gone viral.
The conversation, posted by @don7wizzy on TikTok, captured the brother’s surprised reaction to the sheer volume of photos. In a playful response, he joked about posting them all as if Chibuike were the son of Nigerian politician Bola Tinubu. "You're sending me 33 pictures for what? Don't worry, tomorrow I’ll share them as if he's Tinubu's son," he quipped.
Social media users quickly chimed in, adding to the humor of the situation with similar stories. One user, @Nail tech/Pedicurist in Auchi, commented on their experience of receiving 76 photos from a client for a pre-wedding post, even though they had only done the nails. Another user humorously noted their sister-in-law once sent 90 photos of their mother-in-law.
The exchange and reactions shed light on the common cultural practice of sharing family celebrations extensively on social media. As more users chimed in, the post brought out both the hilarity and relatability of managing enthusiastic family photo shares.
