Col. Robert Akonobi (rtd) Pleads With Igbo Parents To Reduce Bride Price by OKNkanu(m): 10:35am On May 04, 2015 |
Former Military governor of old Anambra State, Col. Robert Akonobi (rtd), has pleaded with Igbo parents to reduce the bride price of their daughters so that ‘’our young boys can marry them.” Speaking at the industrial city of Nnewi, Anambra State during the traditional wedding ceremony of the daughter of a business mogul, Chief Louis Onwugbenu, Onyinye and her husband, Bosah Chukwuogo, weekend, Col. Akonobi said: "To me, this topic (bride price) has been dealt with in the past by Ndigbo, who came out with a reduced bride price, to enable our young boys marry our young girls. It is a very simple matter. Let's all remember that most of our young boys are not very rich and they've come of age to get married."

I thought I was going to see a huge sum of money attached there as the bride price, only for me to see items of a list. Or are they in exchange for the bride price cos I can't make any thing out of this topic. Igbos, making headlines since 1800. |
