i dey suspect dat list bt if it is real den dat list is jst a 'd village scope'.
Jst to see hw much he can pay/provide frm dat list, it must nt be all.
Lyk dat bride price of 50k can turn 2k or 5k. Am sure of dat

Your analogy is false in this instance. The success or not of a marriage does not depend on how much was paid to acquire the wife. At the end of the day, both husband and wife are humans with different emotional understanding and not robots without feelings. It'll still take the two of them to make the marriage work whether dowry was paid or not.

I am just confused. These people can go a long way to paint us bad. I am from Nsukka and very good in some of our traditions, but I have never seen an Nsukka family give Suitor list. But as a suitor who loves the girl you want to marry and you are not under force or undue influence, what is there to spend 500,000 or even above?

The North has the highest rate of divorce in Nigeria, followed by the west before the East, even my Northern lecturer said this.

Why don't you all go ask Easterners how they manage to sustain their marriages rather than mock the pre-marriage process. What happens before the marriage means little compared to what happens during the marriage
am not talking about divorce,, am talking about cheating... Why will you say IBO girls don't cheat,, all the tribes in the whole world cheats both male and female, white or black... No body dey run mad anywhere no,, yoruba dey say magun if you cheat how many times magun dey kill

Hmmm!! poverty!
what do you mean by poverty? Are you saying that he should steal to marry? In this 21st century families charge high bride price to give their daughters out and you except their son in-law s to be happy? Do you think after the marriage that there might be any closeness between the groom and his inlaws after coughing that huge amount? Are you aware such amount contribute indirectly to domestic violence in Nigeria

are you supposing the groom to pay such amount? If yes bear it in mind that the family is selling their daughter not marriage

Wedding receptions often succeed or fail
based on the performance of
the MC. If the MC isn't entertaining, or even
worse, makes jokes in poor taste,
it reflects negatively on the bride and groom.
If want your reception to be classy, run
smoothly, and
be as wonderful as it can be, at a pocket-
friendly price, contact A Professional MC on
07030828285, BBM PIN: 565085F0. You can

Looking forward to hearing from you! Please pass it on; you may be helping someone who needs this info.

Trustworthiness:


That is why their girls sleep around in places like Lekki, Victoria Island (Lagos) , Abuja, Port Harcourt looking for rich guys to marry them. At the end, they become object of sexual satisfaction.

Most of the viewers of this thread think a girl has to be a virgin before you marry her, yes its good if she is but the rate of poverty in Nigeria makes the availability of virgins the most scarce commodity. On the other hand, people like Kanye West who fell in love with a girl that got her fame performing a doggy style on camera would look at some of the comments and think wat da hell is wrong with Africa. There are some really hot girls in Nigeria that will make you borrow money from your family just to marry them and you will have no choice because your competitor is ready to pay the price.

The guy in question needs to evaluate his pros and cons.

Firstly, can he afford the 500K if yes, will he still be able to sustain life with the girl after spending the 500K.

Secondly, does the girl have disposable income if yes, how much of it can she contribute towards the wedding.

In most instances Nigerian girls believe the man is the only person that needs to bear the cross while she keep her own income safe, if that is this guys case i suggest he look for alternatives as he is in for big trouble.

The 500K is not bad, the guy needs to evaluate what items that can be compromised and seek contribution from the girl (this has to stay between both of them).

In some states this 500K is just phase 1, people can scream all they care but spending this 500K doesn't mean you are buying the girl. The items listed are all commodities that will be consumed by the girl's extended families on the wedding day, most of the items are commodities or services, its not even a cash donation.

U fit talk with them to reduce the List/Price. You can't just take her for free na even if she no fine. The right thing should be done at the right time.
it's not about being cheap but it should be moderate not something that is beyond his reach. don't forget what lies ahead after the wedding.
