The most annoying thing about such families is that they can't afford it themselves. When any of their sons want to marry, they will push such expenses to the various husbands of their daughters shocked. Corruption is everywhere in Nigeria, while some perpetuate it using politics, others do the same corruption under culture and traditionembarassed
hmmmmmm so some families will be asked for female child more than male one in that state

To bury that same woman , you go still buy cow , goat to take kill cow and goat for all her sibling with 50 crates of beer and malt .. very nonsense tribe

Mind your words you fool!
You don't insult a tribe because they're acting according to their traditions and norms. I quess you must be from the part of the world where your girl child doesn't have any moral or intellectual education and someone can just come and take her for free.
If not you must have known that training your child to some extent deserves some worth of price to be paid.

You don't know what you're saying, when the lady's parents married how much did they spent?

They are very much aware how things are difficult these days and they still want to get such amount from in-law to bee.

If the lady has medical condition tomorrow would the family help her with such amount, I'm sure the answer is no, if i were the lady even if the man has the money i would not allow him to pay. I will continue to give birth untill some of them are no more before we come for the marriage.

The man is actually dodging a bullet.
If any of the inlaw die, the children husbands are the one to Bury him or her. If she's the only girl or the only married girl as at the time any of the inlaw late, he would carry the whole responsibility.

I am from there and I can tell you for a fact that marrying there is pain in the ass, after paying the 1.2m every December you must send rice and other things for exams.
If grandma die you must attend with a fee imposed on you.
If your wife brother is getting married is ur duty to give him money for the marriage.
If any relative visit you, you must send something for mama, papa, and siblings.
If the papa died you mush come buried him based on the list given to you.
Mama died shame thing.
Sister/ brother's school fees is on your head.

Yet faithfulness is problem to them.
Only few are faithful.
Though unfaithfulness has nothing to do with tribe.

Keep kwayet please, you don't understand anything.

Most marriage bride prices are not up to 50k, it is the list that makes it high.

Most lists should not be more than a million naira but extortion and so on, makes the elders inflate it.
Moderate and average ones suppose dey around 250k and 500k respectively.

What the other guy is saying is asking for 1.2m for bride price is on the high side.

How much do you think the marriage-list and setting up of the traditional marriage occasion(excluding the church wedding) will now cost if just the bride price cost #1.2m.

Go back to school, abeg!

Na traditions .





Don't allow the whites traditions to overcome African traditions,so just do it .
Even if it leads to financial crisis in your marriage? Tradition shouldn't be superior to personal life.
He only needs to discuss it with reasonable figures in the bride's family, and all will be fine.

They're mosly very selfish inlaws but the biological father and mother always tend to be very understanding. But the sisters, uncles and aunties are often very stupid greedy people.
