Rice 4 bgs for 32k ?

That budget will only fetch you a bag (50kg) and half (25kg) at current market price

That's Buhari's effect at play

You see that 15k you budgeted for 50 litres of oil? Okay, enter bike and go to Daleko, meet the woman closest to the main entrance selling household items. Handover the 15k and tell her to give you three gallons of 5-litre Kings Vegetable oil.

It's no longer funny. I did mine last December and prices has gone up. What you buy with an amount today is not what you'll get with the same amount tomorrow. God go help you but just make sure you work with a budget.

Wedding ceremonies are not compulsory, especially now that we are in perilous times.

I don’t know how you will write that list with numerous zeros and sleep well at night. The only people that write the price of groundnut oil and tin tomatoes themselves are people working on a very tight budget. Else you will handover the cooking to a caterer and she would multiply a plate by your estimated number of guests (e.g) N750 * 300 guests. How many litres of oil she uses wouldn’t be your business.

If you have to sit like this to bother your head about prices and inflation, scratch it. Have an indoor trad in her father’s sitting room, proceed to a registry if you want.

This is 2021 for God’s sake. The people you want to come for a wedding, some of us do not even have money for transport. If we come, we no fit spray you pass 2k.

He should thank God if they spray. Many will come to eat, drink, dance and fight for souvenirs, after which they will find who to hitch a free ride with back to their bustop.

The op strikes me as a stingy person, the kind that will measure the yams and rice level before he leaves for work so that his wife will not 'overcook'.

I don’t get the Nigerian obsession with wedding ceremonies. I saw a lady struggling to wed amidst the pandemic. Finally she decided they would move the date and her husband told her he won’t move the date by a second. I told her I will buy her husband one crate of his favourite drink. Na man im be!

It is mostly for the fanfair and photographs. I know people who are struggling to make ends meet after lavishing their savings on the wedding ceremony. We can't always have what we want, and if it is your dream to have a big wedding but your pocket doesn't support that dream, do your thing quietly and move on with your life.

Omo! Ishi, if my children wan see my wedding picture, make them imagine am for their head. They should get creative abi imaginative, because I ain’t doing nothing!

Nigerian youths should start using their heads. They can organize a photoshoot if they want pictures for memory. After that, go for a honeymoon in a nearby African country. That is a whole lot better than sweating inside one hall while dancing skelewu, watching people drag foofoo, jollof rice and souvenirs, greeting unknown faces, including the ones that don’t mind tying your womb if they could. grin


HIGHESTPOPORI:
If you are not married, you don't have a right to advice people on how to do their wedding

I have the right to advise them because it is us they would want to sell 3yards asoebi for @ 25k. It is still us they would expect to spray them money that they can use to recoup their wedding expenses. It is us they will want to borrow money from after wedding. It is even worse when you are single because they assume you have no responsiblities. Whether single or married…they don’t spare us of their expectations. So I won’t spare them my advice!

Thank you.

You don't need 1 cow, 4 bags of rice for that wedding ceremony.
Just go to an abattoir, they can sell parts of cow butchered for you. With ₦50,000, plus ₦30,000 chicken, you're game. You just need 1½ bag of 50kg rice.

I'm trying to assist you plan efficiently and save cost. You do NOT need crowd, because even when you have crowd, you'd spend more, the foods, drinks will be wasted, some folks will also hijack the refreshments and hoard foods and drinks.
