igbsam: And you call that ridiculous ? My friend got married to an owerri girl last year. He paid a bride price of N2.5million, after which, he bought the wedding materials for all the relatives, from the mother, to the father down to the uncles and aunties, the sisters and cousins including nephews. He was also give 2 family members to train in school and business. After 8months of the wedding.....the bride's father demanded for a car and the father specifically asked for a 2005 c-class Mercedes Benz Car which he borrow money to buy for him. The mother asked for some money to fill her shop with stocks which my friend is still finding it difficult to give her. Isn't this ridiculous ?

Evestar200: The most ridiculous bride price have heard,, is of the Urhobo nd Esan poeple which pay #10 and #24 as their bride price, because they said they do not 'sell their women.

Esan people even return the bride price money to the groom's people after the marriage because they do not sell their girls.

holuphisayor: A man was told to pay a bride price of #50 but couldn't even pay that amount. His frend later helped him out. Lwkmd

Policewoman: MBAISE IN IMO STATE IS THE MOST EXPENSIVE. They grade their brides in 4 categories:
1. ILLITERATE
2. SCHOOL CERTIFICATE
3. GRADUATE
4. MASTERS AND ABOVE

Each has their different price tags. For example the graduate can cost you as much as 600k to 1m.

hardbody:

I am igbo from Arochukwu in Abia state. our daughters go for N25.25k. It has never changed and will never change. That tradition came from when 25 pounds was big money but today we still give out at N25.25k. Ask around and you will confirm.

When you guys generalize the way you do, i tend to think we have a lot of immature people around this forum. It is sickening

Truckpusher: Lmao...50 you badt...

Yomii: The most ridiculous bride prize i have ever had in my life was #2 That was when my friends elder sister got married to an Igbo Man. Now that my brother want to marry an igbo lady, they told him to bring #500,000

Lilimax:
Don't you think one should be proud of his/her sexuality ?

hardbody:

Can you get real? you have been lying all over this thread. Do not say things you do not know just for the fun of it, else amadioha will strike you down.

Yomii:
If this is how this bride price of a thing will continue, most expecially from our Igbo babes, then it is their father that will marry them.
My advice to every young man like me, once you discover that the parent of the babe want to sell her to you, just pack your shoe and cut out... Don't even waist time at all. When she grow old for house, they will give her out for free.
