Its not much for a human being. Its just right. The Igbo ancestors law make sense. Or else do you want a jobless fellow to marry your daughter and then be a burden on the family? If a man cant afford the demands, then how we will he take good care of the wife and children? He might just use and throw her.' Anyways sha. . ... Kudos to the Igbo Laws! 1 Like |

I'm not sure where you guys culled those traditional marriage rites list from buts it's totally different from where I'm from. I'm from Aguleri, a local town/community in Anambra state and our traditional marriage list is totally different. Getting traditionally married to a girl/lady/woman from my town/community is downright on the economical state. You only need a tuber of yam, kola nuts, one schnapps (hot drink) and ego orji (Usually #5). Though I can't deny the absolute truth that this is not usually so with people from other states and communities so people, choose carefully your bride's provenance. |

cornel1900: after going tru that, u'l definitely know that marriage is not for boys. I utterly disagree. Oyinbo marriage lasting has nothing to do with whether or not the daughter was sold to her husband. It has only to do with the culture of individualism in the west and a certain excess of "freedoms". Bring that same wife-sale marriage to the west and the outlined factors will take it's toll on that marriage just as hard as any other marriage residing in it. The excuses given by those that support this manner of exploitation are logically mute and are simply a reflection of the archetypical Nigerian mindset that everything can be bought with money and should have a price-tag on it. |

PAGAN 9JA: Ummm by the time he is done affording said demands, he CERTAINLY won't be able to take good care of the wife and children. I'm beginning to think Ibo people just get off on seeing couples start off their lives with nothing. That's just one list, they haven't even entered the OTHER lists and then the WEDDINGS to follow, all of which will be paid for by the man....because ibo folks just don't give a fawk as opposed to the family of say a Yoruba bride who actually play a major factor in the wedding. How am I to now respect a woman who I paid for like as if I bought a slave? The logic is counter-progressive. |
