Your husband knows them better, so ask him what is suitable for you to bring
He should be the one guiding you here.
Make it simple and only do what you are prepared to sustain
All the best with the meeting

Don't overdo it. A basket of fruits (oranges, apples, bananas, grapes, pears etc) with a bow at the top to make things pretty. If you know how to cook, make a cake or pie for them. Traditional gifts are always acceptable in most cases. That's thoughtful of you to bring a gift but most Nigerian cultures don't expect gifts. So if you, don't do anything you cannot replicate or will resent doing another time. Don't raise anyone's expectations.

Like has already been said. The simpler the gift the better. So a basket of fruits, fabric i.e ankara-woodin, daviva, excellence etc, pair of slippers should be alright.....

Please don't take them flowers

Thank you everyone that's answered me

The reason I was asking cos my husband didn't know what to bring when I suggested cake or flowers he said no so I had no idea what to bring. Thank you about fruit basket sounds good idea thank you.

I'm gonna buy it tomorrow thank you again
