The Marriage Introduction Phase

This phase deals with the groom-to-be coming with his immediate and some extended family members to know the bride-to-be family. This phase indicates that there’s a progress in the process. The highlight of this phase is the socialization and interaction by both families to known themselves better.
The requirements for this phase of the marriage process are:

• One goat

• 2 bottles dry gin

• 2 crates of beer

• 3 crates of minerals

• 2 crates of malt

• #10,000 for the mother and #20,000 for the Father.

This phase ends with another instruction to the groom-to-be by the bride’s family. The man is asked to come another day for the proper marriage list.

In between the pre-introduction and marriage ceremony proper, there’s a little period which is traditionally called UNO MKPO, This is when the man comes to give the marriage things on the list. this can be done by the man alone. The marriage list is always a long one.
