Imo state is in the news again over the requirements which a groom recently presented to his bride's family for their marriage introduction.

According to MC Emmydon, an eyewitness who was shocked by what he saw, his friend (the groom) bought various sets of wrapper, bags of rice, drinks both alcoholic and non-alcoholic among others things which he gave his partner's family for their wedding introduction on Sunday, January 6th. 

He also revealed that these were required from the groom aside the bride price which was later paid to the lady's family.

The report has sparked mixed reactions from Nigerian internet users, with some lamenting over the "large" requirements.

Is even small ....



Why are u shouting

Her mum will kuku open wrapper shop

Female pikin na really investment for that region oo...so, go even ask the groom to buy land, build skyscraper on top for introduction to take place.... This is what poverty is causing, they are know using it to hide through what they call tradition...if na me if I marry the pikin finish I no won see the family for ma house till world go end

Look at that one saying it is because they are beautiful, intelligent and blah blah blah that only real men come for them.

I am sure that lady in question is unmarried and whoever is dating her might be one broke guy somewhere.

Imo ladies should get ready to marry themselves very soon if they aren't ready to stop this tradition.

And OP, I have seen worse. They haven't still bought white IGBO goats and all other nonsense.

I have seen worse. so what's all the hype

My God
After all these bank account shattering demands
They will still be asking their son in law for other financial aids
And some ladies will be disrespectful and say they are equal to their husbands. nonsense

Lol, not for people like me... When I impregnate your daughter with twins then run to Cameron, you'll be the one begging to come and take her for free.

If I paid such outrageous amount of money, she becomes one of my assets, not wife.

That's why I go marry either Hausa or Yoruba.
1 bag of Ewedu and pepper or 1 bag of goro and kunu.... wife don land.

All of you bashing Igbos with their list, are you people aware there is something called Tradition?

Could it be these lists is why Igbo women stay in marriage no matter the situation. They don't cheat, they don't run away when the situation goes wrong.

Igbo amaka. Marry an Igbo woman and have absolute peace in your marriage.


IGBO AMAKA!
