What Do You Call This Kind Of Traditional Marriage List ? by henrimoto(m): 9:23am On Apr 04
Fellow Nairalanders,

Make una follow me look this traditional marriage list wey me and my friends go collect some days ago. ( Location - one community like that outside Abakaliki ,Ebonyi State.)

Does this family really want this lady to get married at all ?

What kind of family is this abeg ? All they are after is drinks , drinks and money. No clothing's, no food stuffs.

Those things they listed there is with the intention to monetize them.

Bride price! - 2 cows and Six goats !! ... When no be king/president Pikin we wan marry.

Even the list, before we could get the list, we spent more than 70+ cash to collect this marriage list.

Even if the suitor is not from the same tribe with the lady, it should not be like this.

This is pure exploitation !

My Guy never get himself since that day. Emergency Fever catch the guy. πŸ˜†

Forget about what is written. Just ask them how much is enough to monetize the list.

If they mention 1 million naira or above, then you know what to do.

Don't be silly. This is a very considerate list. Besides, the things written on there can be argued which makes it fun.

Instead of providing 6 cartons of Amstel Malt, tell them you can provide only 2. Instead of providing 2 cows and 2 goats, tell them you can provide one each of the cow and goat or two goats or even one of either. The trick is to be as honest and plain as possible. Do not claim to be what you aren't. No unnecessary show-offs. Claim to be an upcoming guy if you must. You know what you want and your fiancee has to spearhead this project most importantly. She will be the mediator to her parents who in turn will make things easy for you as far as they are considerate. You cannot do this alone. You should have Umunnas β€” depending on your tribe. They will be at the forefront for you.

These are one of the things we do for love, so I do not know why you are bickering. Or would you just throw away years of investments of relationship because of a cosmetic list which in the end, you may end up giving just half of? Don't be a chicken.

The list given in my place is about 3 pages, in funny cases, 4. And in the end, you do not even pay half of a page. In their words "we no dey marry woman finish". The hack is to firstly, have a considerate to-be in-laws and a vocal/assertive/supportive fiancee, then the rest is a done deal. The others can be bypassed.

Re: What Do You Call This Kind Of Traditional Marriage List ? by Beremx(f): 8:21pm On Apr 06
Let's assume a cow is a million naira, that means two cows is two million naira. Only for bride price?

Oga carry your woman run. Get her pregnant and let her have kids. After she must have had two kids, go back and do the marriage rites. I swear, they will not bill you heavy. Dem dey craze?

The number of above 30, beautiful and employed women I meet all the time is alarming. What is really going on? There are more unmarried ladies in their 30s now in Nigeria than the married ones.

Family greed, personal greed and wokeness is going to be the cause of the end of the marriage institution in this country.
