why pay so much simply to marry a woman?

If you can afford it, just pay the money. Instead of complaining, just be smart and channel your energy into putting the girl in a family way and the bride price will crash instantly.

Anazp: Hello. I have been dating my girl for about five years now. I proposed to her and she agreed to marry me. However after fixing the date from the traditional Wedding, her parents are asking for five million naira as Bride Price. I told my girlfriend to appeal to them to at least reduce it to two million but her parents refuse. They say its an extended family decision like her Uncles and other relatives. I don't understand. I love my girl and she loves me. She's from Orlu, Imo State. I need your advice. Thanks

Bros...

Imo State people are like that!! Just leave her and enter 500 Naira transport at Owerri Control straight to Anambra State.

My wifes bride price was only 1000 Naira, despite offering out 500,000 Naira to her father.

Thats why Imo State is the single women capital of the East. Even their own men dont want to marry their sisters.

Bride price in Imo state of Nigeria is high. Most people do complain about it. Also, I don't know why Imo families do sell -out their daughters? Most people hate marrying from Imo state cos their demand is racketting.

Bros, this is a blantant lie. There is NO PLACE AND FAMILY that will ask you for such a price. I can bet my life for that. What type of family is that. If you are talking about bride price in Imo state, then, you should talking about Mbaise people and it is not upto that amount that you are talking about. I guess you want to abandon your friend of five years. It is upto you, so stop telling lies about people.

You dont need to be told that the story is false. I got married last two weeks from that same Orlu Imo State, the bride price was only 1,600 Naira. So tell me how true this story can be?

Re: I'm In Love With My Girlfriend, But The Bride Price Is Just Too Much by medube(m): 9:25am On Apr 16, 2013
My brother as someone has rightly mentioned earlier, your woman's family members are all crooks or they just simply don't want you to marry their daughter. I got married traditionally in Orlu in October 2012 and I can say that the whole thing including the bride price, list and ceremony (though not too big) did not cost me up to 1.2m and might I add, I be oyibo though a Nigerian to the core grin One thing to note, is everything to do with the extended family, elders, etc all depends on your direct inlaws and if they are requesting 5m and giving you grammar, then my brother I don't believe they want you to marry their daughter. It is either that or as someone pointed out earlier, it is a test to see how much you really want to marry their daughter. Be calm , explain your situation and all should be well.

unfortunately its not, its a common thing in some parts of ibo land. in my church in umuahia, there were a lot of matured ladies who were still single because their parents requested for high dowry and refused bring it down.

This is pure extortion that is putting even Nigeria's politician to shame on their own game. The greed is unequaled to any i have ever witnessed. That's approximately 2 million kenyan shillings but the thought of even the parents floating such an amount is purely commercializing their daughter for selfish gains.
