@OP, am Igbo and from Anambra state. The general consensus among Igbo guys in general is never marry an Imo girl unless you have too much money to waste on bride price. Heck, even Imo dudes hardly marry babes from their states because of this issue. They usually ask for huge sums of money in the name of bride price as if they want to recoup all the money they have spent bringing up the lady from birth and they usually try to justify it by saying that their daughters are worth more than what you are asked to pay. My cousin is having her traditional wedding next month to an Imo dude and everything he was asked to bring wasn't even up to 500K. My advice to you is this, put your foot down and ask them to bring it down to less than a million and if they refuse to do (which is the most likely outcome) forget her and move on. True, you might think you don't have time and you probably can't let her go. Trust me, if she really wants to be with you, she will stand by your side when you present your case to her folks.

P.S. Another rule of thumb is that Imo girls tend to spend many years in their father's house because they tend to chase potential hubbys away with the bride price thing. I hope she knows that else let her better find and hook a big fish fast to avoid that fate.

Anazp: Hello. I have been dating my girl for about five years now. I proposed to her and she agreed to marry me. However after fixing the date from the traditional Wedding, her parents are asking for five million naira as Bride Price. I told my girlfriend to appeal to them to at least reduce it to two million but her parents refuse. They say its an extended family decision like her Uncles and other relatives. I don't understand. I love my girl and she loves me. She's from Orlu, Imo State. I need your advice. Thanks

chioma134: You're a big liar. Everything u wrote is based on assumptions. I can categorically state that nowhere in Imo collects up to 1million as bride price. These days,suitors are only asked to bring the listed items which cost btw 400-500k at most. Bride price is at d discretn of d parents,and many forego it, unless they don't like d suitor and want to chase him away. I've seen it happen even in Anambra.

This is a lie and I urge my fellow guys to dis-regard this post and am so disapointed that the mods took dis to d FP! God will judge you alone for this lie you fabricated for the whole world to see!! Its well

Orikinla: THERE IS NO WHERE IN NIGERIAN CUSTOM AND TRADITION THAT BRIDE PRICE IS EVEN UP TO N1 MILLION.
EITHER THE POSTER IS A JOKER OR HIS IN-LAWS ARE IGBO SLAVE TRADERS DEMANDING THE PRICE FOR THEIR DAUGHTER WHO IS ABOUT TO BE SOLD IN THE CAMOUFLAGE OF MARRIAGE.

angelsing: why i my do only one who thinks this is a complete fabrication of the Op mind..5million?.pls come up wit a better lie

cross50: Fake Story

Amaaskia: This story sounds like a joke or an absolute lie, however if you can't afford it- you simply move on. I'm rather reluctant to say much.. Fishy!

Akshow: Some in laws are senseless. Is bride price now a wind fall? What sort of rubbish is that? Them want make e feed the wife wit air after e marry her finish? That is why i love my yoruba folks. In most cases the parents return the bride price to the husband tellin him to jus take care of her cos their daughter is not for sale. Aside the traditional yams, boxes of cloth and drinks nothin more.
