Its Igbo culture, if you don't want to marry, you use the door, no one is forcing you either.

Fallacy of hasty generalization..It's not Igbo culture,it's the culture of those from Mbaise and Mbano axis..

Re: Photo Of Food Items Bought For A Bride's Family by Nobody: 7:07pm On Mar 20, 2017

Are the people here not married, abi una never attend bride price ceremony before?
It's not bride's family taking those things, but the villagers (i.e) the women, men and the youth. Most parents don't even take their own part of the list and they try not to interfere in the villagers own to avoid trouble.

My husband's people actually gave us their own compulsory list too. 1 he goat, big basin full of akpu, kegs of palm wine, soup, yam... was inclusive. They left with it after dropping their own cheesy

My fiance will bring all those things all on my own traditional marriage day.

My parents no pluck me from tree.
Am a full blown enterprising woman, fresh,educated ,fruitful, intelligent and beautiful.. So no man will come and disgrace me by bringing pure water and one cup of rice.

Some men dey even add cow and cows untop.

Mine will not be different in Jesus name amen.

I suspect Mbaise people from Imo state.

How do you know it's Mbaise or even Igbo? This very pic was also posted on facebook by a friend of mine, an Akwa Ibomite. He said it was just for "knocking on the door ". Do we have any marriage stage called "knocking on the door "in Igbo culture?

Re: Photo Of Food Items Bought For A Bride's Family by hammerF: 7:55pm On Mar 20, 2017

ONLY LAZY AND WICKED MEN COMPLAIN ABOUT FULFILLING THE DEMANDS OF THE KINDRED THAT U ARE ABOUT TO JOIN.

THE ITEMS ARE NOT EVEN FOR THE GIRLS IMMEDIATE FAMILY BUT THE KINDRED.

AND NO, BECOS U FULFILLED THE MARRIAGE RITE, DOES NOT MEAN U BOUGHT THEIR DAUGHTER.

IF NA BUYING AND SELLING, I GUARANTEE U THAT U CANNOT AFFORD A HUMAN BEING. EVEN DANGOTE WILL HAVE PROBLEM PAYING THE PRICE INVOLVED TO BUY ANOTHER HUMAN BEING.

With what I have read so far about Mbaise people concerning marriage there, I did not conclude but a guess. If this one na knocking on de door, wahala dey be that. I bet most people will be single up till 40yrs in that village.

Not to mention subtle slavery? I mean, after paying all that amount and buying those stuff, it'll be hard for a man not to believe he bought his wife.

Re: Photo Of Food Items Bought For A Bride's Family by hammerF: 8:13pm On Mar 20, 2017

MY FATHER MARRIED MY MOTHER NO COMPLAIN, HIS FATHER MARRIED HIS MOTHER NO COMPLAIN, MY MOTHER FATHER MARRIED MY GRANDMOTHER NO COMPLAIN.

IGBO MEN HAVE BEEN FULFILING THE TRADITIONAL RITE OF MARRIAGE SINCE TIME IMMEMORIAL WITH NO COMPLAIN.

WHO ARE THESE BUNCH OF LAZY MEN THAT WANT THEIR INLAW TO PAY FOR THE MARRIAGE BECOS THEY ARE DOING THEM A FAVOUR BY MARRYING THEIR DAUGHTER?

MARRIAGE IN IGBO LAND IS NOT FORCED, IT IS NOT FOR THE POOR AS ANY FAMILY U GO TO MARRY FROM WILL BE INTERESTED IN WAT U DO FOR A LIVING AND WANT TO KNOW IF U WILL BE ABLE TO COPE WITH THE RESPONSIBILITY OF AN ADDITION TO THE FAMILY AS WELL AS TAKE CARE OF URSELF AND THEIR DAUGHTER.

THE MARRIAGE RITE IS A TEST OF UR FINANCIAL CAPABILITIES TO ASSERTAIN THAT U ARE COMPETENT TO CARRY A FAMILY AS A MAN.

GO TO THE EAST, IT IS THE ONLY PLACE IN THE WHOLE NIGERIA THAT U RARELY SEE ANYBODY BEGGING ON THE STREET.

MY ADVICE TO THOSE OF U OBSESSED WITH IGBO CULTURE EVEN THOUGH U ARE NOT IGBO, IS THAT U START THE CHANGE FROM UR OWN CULTURES, CHANGE STARTS FROM WITHIN, U CANNOT BE JUMPING THE FENCE INTO ANOTHER MAN COMPOUND TO REARRANGE THE PLACE AS U DEEM FIT WEN UR OWN COMPOUND IS A BIGGER MESS.

HERE ARE THE TYPES OF PICTURES WE FIND IN THE NORTH AND SOUTH WEST, WHERE THE BRIDE FAMILY FOOT THE MARRIAGE BILL, POLYGAMY WITH CHILDREN RUNNING THE STREET TO BEG FOR THEIR NEXT MEAL.

I don't understand the rationale behind this kind of extortion. Is the woman being sold? The culture has been perverted because I don't think culture will ask a man to empty his savings account because he wants to marry a girl

IGBO PEOPLE ARE A GREAT PEOPLE AND UR NOISES ARE HEARD BUT DEEM NUISANCE NOISE.

WITH ALL THE OIL IN NIGERIA, UNDER THE LEADERSHIP OF THE NORTH AND SOUTH WEST, THE COUNTRY IS STILL ONE OF THE POOREST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD.

THE BIBLE SAYS THAT WISE MEN COME FROM THE EAST.

WE CANNOT CHANGE OUR RICH CULTURE AND BECOME POLYGAMOUS BECOS MARRIAGE IS EASY AND CHEAP.

IF U PEOPLE DONT WANT TO SHARE COUNTRY WITH IGBOS KINDLY REINSTATE BIAFRA BECOS WE REALLY DONT LIKE OR APPRECIATE UR ANIMAL NOISE.

No big deal here.

This is not even for her family, it's usually for the village "vultures" who you don't even know (and don't know you).

I believe they don't care. All they care about is what they get from the man.

I remember when my cousin was getting married. He married an easterner. I smile when he told me that before they allowed him into the house of his father-in-law, he had to buy a cartoon of Benson and Hedges for the youths in the village. They said it's custom. I mean, like seriously.

SMH.
