Sedoo! My mother called out. She had just returned from Gboko,where she attended my cousins formal introduction to the family of the beautiful young lady he intends to marry. When I heard of the news,I wondered why my young unemployed cousin would want to take up a bride. In about two weeks he would leave for the NYSC programme yet here he was visiting his girl friends family to tell them he wants to marry her. Most astonishing is that his parents are solidly behind him. Could he have put her in a family way? I pondered, yes that should be the reason. If not why would he take such a bold step?....... Sedoo!!! My mothers voice vibrated. 'Maaaaaaaaa! I responded and rushed out to meet her.'Mummy welcome' I said as I sat down on a plastic chair just infront of her. "How did the introduction go?" I asked, she replied "oh it went well", then before I could hold my tongue I blurted out what had been going on in my head, "why is he trying to get married?" ,"sey,he is going for service?". She answered by telling me how she asked his mum and she mumbled something like the parents of her soon to be daughter in-law are devout catholics and knights for that matter. That being knights themselves,herself and my uncle were more than happy that their only son,my cousin, would marry from such a home. And since he would leave for the NYSC orientation camp soon,they didn't want to take chances. They were worried he might go and fall in love with a girl who is neither catholic and her parents wouldn't be knights after all.
My mother went on about how the introduction was more like a traditional wedding because everything was done except for the payment of dowry. Then she paused as though she was meditating, and almost immediately she looked at me and asked "when are we going to host your's sedoo?",when are you going to get married?. I laughed hysterically..........to be contd
