But why nah

Prom Queen

Two female antelope..from sambisa forest

I don't see any wrong with the list
U all shud stop judging the culture of a tribe.

If I should manage to pay all these, forget oooo make the bae say beybey to her family, na if I like I go let her pay them visit.

lol i av even seen something like one trailer of pigs on one of these list

vimi:
This iis just so out of place, I think this dowry thing shud be checked n iin the aftermath unified nationwide by FG via [b]HOR bil[/b]l or something.

This iis the core reason why some self acclaimed 'Sharp guys' end-up impregnating their beloved to ghostly escape gigantic fee by prospective inlaws.

This kinda extortion iis directly proportional to the amount of disrespect(panel-beating) the poor lady gets when they finally tie the knot.

You must be joking, government can't regulate peoples culture especially
when people are not being forced to practise such, if you can't foot the bill,
you zoom off.

Kikikikiki
No wonder

Thank you jare. Truth is even tho the items are much, they are not that expensive. But the 22 carat necklace is unrealistic, sure they don't know what 22 carat gold is. That is one of the most expensive quality you can get. But every other thing is child's play

22 carat gold? Na to go carry Jacki Chan come for them, dem go see carat run

that's Imo for you oooo

this one small sha compare to what my cousin spent on mbano lady

Beremx bia fulu ndi bunu
chai your husband heard nwiiii

There is nothing wrong with the list biko.
Most of those items may not even go round well for the family. They deserve it.
It is a marriage not birthday. And this seems fair to me

Well the guy is not serious,cuz there's always a way of negotiation for all these items...but if the guy is from Kalabari in Rivers State he should buy everything in the list cuz men from other communities pay more than dis jst to marry their girls.

Some people sha... Dem for kukuma tell me say dem wan dey do trading business make i open shop for them, once and for all..

See their mouth like 20carats gold necklace.. Awon oloshi eniyan..

Even if your daughter is Halle Berry, this kain list na terrorism na.
Anyone that puts a list up can keep their child. I thought women wanted equality? What does the mans family get?

Nothing wrong? Everything is wrong. Are they selling their child? Why must the man provide anything? What will the woman give to the mans family?

Why would you see anything wrong with the list? Did you say "may not even go around in the family"? Are you marrying the whole family? It's a marriage, more reason why it should be modest. If you spend all these on "Ime ego", what's the traditional gonna look like?

Well from where I'm from, this is the height of ridiculousness. As much as we have a list, it's no where close to this. And we wonder why some men see their women as a piece of furniture rather than as a their spouse.

Oh btw, it's the discretion of the man's family to do more if they so desire (and yes, they do more). Dowry from my place is only N100 and it's up to the man to give up thousands if he chooses.

No wonder all my friend from the east are afraid of wedding.

Now I know why Emeka my friend is always in support of inter-tribal marriage. His girlfriend is from Abeokuta.
I will confront him with a copy of this bride price tomorrow.

When the so-called culture was originally being practiced, no such thing as "gold necklace" existed back then. This has nothing to do with culture but plain poverty, greed, and primitiveness.

Exactly!

This isn't culture at all, this is greed.

There is a difference between BRIDE PRICE and DOWRY.
Dowry is an amount of property or money brought by a bride to her husband on their marriage
