My challenge still stands, but in the mean time, how much does a typical white wedding typically cost in Naija?

From N100,000 above is too much.

I've never heard about any bride price exceeding 5000 Naira.

LMAO. . . .
This is funny.

I remember my aunt's husband refusing to pay for the 20 tubers of yam
He initially told them 10 then 15.

Dude refused to bring the gallons of fresh palm wine he was asked to.

Infact nothing was complete except the kolanut, ose o ji and drinks.
Omo, hear proverbs and counter proverbs.

How much did adam pay for eve,

In USA is not more than a thousand dolla, i have witness it, sometimes our culture can make us a slave to our self

^^^^ the idea is so outdated to me but what get's me even more is when they ask for bride price in dollars!!!
Chei !!!greed no be small for Naija

That process should be abolished. Nobody should pay for marrying anybody!!!

I absolutely agree.

@materese go your village make you start to abolish from there na. You don forget say we be Africans. bride price is important.

I learnt that some tribes ask for as much as a cow, loads of yam and other expensive stuff for them to give their daughters out in marriage. What can you not pay as bride price?


hahahahahahahahahahahahaHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH

Primitive Africans

@NordicRACE: Shut up if u r not African and don't understand! We place high premium on our beautiful daughters, that's why we pay bride(pride, if u like) price for them. Whatever is worth paying for is worth being treasured. I just wanna know how much is too much.

why ur answering a man with no culture is beyond me. leave him and his broken society.

he prefers those women that get drunk every weeken and sleep with anything with a heart beat.

Bride price - wat's it all about, its not d amount for raising a kid to adult age, its not an investment as many thinks, its not a family financial recovery from holdin a baby to adult. But its a communion of gettin to know who your daughter is goin to be with. And establish a relationship bond between two families

any amount that can make me go bankrupt is too much

thank GOD mine is for free, just ring finsh.i love europe.

@Markenny: For free huh? That's why she'll want to divorce u at d slightest provocation.

Take lashes of horse whip just to get married? Not me! That culture must change.

@topic, like some1 stated - going bankrupt and I think over 50k is too much, wetin dem dey SELL?
