Re: Igbo Traditional Wedding List by savanaha: 1:47am On Jan 26, 2011 |
I was going to say the list isn't bad, all you have to do is save little by little. Then I kept scrolling down and down and down. Well since he already has two children with her there is no undoing. He should bring what he wants and write an I owe you for the rest. |

Re: Igbo Traditional Wedding List by Freewilly(f): 1:54am On Jan 26, 2011 |
I sure there are grounds for negotiations |
Re: Igbo Traditional Wedding List by laplace(m): 5:44am On Jan 26, 2011 |
If this is ture, I think I now understand the reason several of my female Ibo friends are unmarried! This lis is outright nonsense! I hope they won't give me a list like this or anything close. It's sheer wickedness to put a burden of this magnitude on the young man and his family. If this is what they want, they do not expect young guys to marry their daughter. Maybe the expectation is that you must have worked for 10 or more years, be a politician or go and do mone rituals. They don't seem to care about the source of your wealth. I've heard from a semi reliable source that her bride price will be N250,000 and I'm not complaining. What will make me burst into laughter is if anyone brings this kind of list. Benson and Hedges ko, Rothmans ni. Na me send them come Lagos. You need to respect your in-laws and thank them for raising your bride. You should have been doing that all along, but I think this list could be a big burden. People should give us an estimated cost of this list? Sure it's in millions!!! Maybe I need to visit the native man in Ihiala first before marriage. |

Re: Igbo Traditional Wedding List by amosexy: 3:47pm On Jan 26, 2011 |
Ify, I didnt say i was igbo, i said if the traditional lists are like this be it yoruba or igbo or Hausa, i might not be getting married in another 20 years. I said Igbo becos i cant differenciate Igbo from from the Calabars, I've alwayz belivd they all are the same. i was just searching for a traditional wedding list on google, then i came aross that . God help us. |
Re: Igbo Traditional Wedding List by aloyemeka1: 4:14pm On Jan 26, 2011 |
The whole thing in that list is a little over $1000 and the average price for a diamond ring is $3000. What is wrong with Africans?. Besides, the Igbos and their neighbors presenty lists to their inlaws and expect them to bid on it. In most cases, 90% of the requirements are not fulfilled because in Igboland they believe that the rites for marriage can never fully be satisfied until death do the couple part. |
