If your introduction is more than 50k, I guess you need to re-evaluate your spending judgement.

400k for introduction is too much. If you spend 400k for introduction, then how much is the wedding going to cost? Don't know your tribe, but 60% of introduction should be carried by the bride family. I remember very well that my wife parents didn't even want me to contribute to our introduction but I gave her some money and we went with plenty gifts on introduction day.

I wonder if there is anything like introduction marriage.
I presume you mean making your intention known to the girl's family.

In my culture, and it appears to be same in most places, you only need to take few elders and some drinks (traditional & brewed) to the girl's family and declare your intention to marry their daughter.

The drinks and logistics should not cost more than N30,000.

Traditional marriage is the time you fullfil the necessary requirements/pay the bride price. You are deemed legally married thereafter, with or without church wedding.
It will be interesting to know what are the features of the planned introductory marriage. I think your woman is extravagant. No need to impress anybody with expensive marriage ceremony.

in yorubaland, buy your cloths for both of you. take gifts with you (fruits n drinks mainly). if the girl's family are responsible, they should cater for food cos they are hosting u. you can support financially in food if asked depending on agreed estimated guest but that doesn't mean you should be extorted.... 400k is extortion..... Ask Efcc to this investigate this introgate even before they share the money..lolz

I concur!
If 400k is not enough for introducting yourself and family and your intentions, then how much will be enough for taking their daughter?
