Superstar007, hope you have started buying them one at atime, if not I can facilitate a loan with 21% interest and all your landed properties home and abroad as collateral, even if it is just 1sqm of land, no problem, kindly consider my offer.

Op, no 13 is very outrageous, 200 bathroom slippers for the villagers, that makes the man a community/public husband ohh.

See as them dey sell the geh.

This is what gives some men the guts to say:
"you belong to me"

"wholly and fully you is mine"

"I don't want you to go see your mama"

"Who are they sef?"


Some traditions svcks!

Got my list of almost 1/2a mill (after 2 adjustments) n was like WTF! !..n peeps were like 'u got off easy'.

Have said it, n will still maintain it...marriage lists these days is a fraud. .ridiculous emotional n financial blackmail.
At d end, aren't we 'buying' our wives? ? Yet after that, ur still expected to handle the trad n all.

I promptly called off d wedding sha n went incommunicado f a week plus until a downward review was assured..afterall, 2 can play d game..#notimeforlongthings

Actually, I got the list from facebook. . When I saw it, I was like WTF? shocked
So, I decided to post it here on NL only to login and see 20+ mentions.

God knows If I get such a list from my intending inlaws even if I be Dangote pikin, na to tear race oh grin but I know that there are some people who think that because someone wants to marry their daughter, they see it as a ladder of upgrade, like the man is a kinda God sent saviour. Then after the man sees that all he paid for wasn't worth it, the frustration could make him beat up the wife.
