Coming after a Benue Monarch banned intending grooms in his community, from spending more than N100, 000 on traditional wedding, a young graduate who teaches in a private secondary school has fallen victim of the ‘overblown’ marriage list.

According to Idoma Voice, the teacher who earns a monthly salary of N75,000 was asked by his prospective Benue in-laws to bring five jerry cans of palm oil, one goat, two cartons of beer, two crates of soft drinks and eight thousand naira before he would be given the list of items to buy and pay for.

He went, presented the items to them and they gave him a list of more items worth N1.5M.

“This excludes other logistic and miscellaneous expenses he may incur during the traditional marriage. We are even yet to talk about Church wedding which some ladies insist on before stepping their feet in a man’s house. Even the guy’s entire salary for thirty months cannot foot the bills before him. They must continue with their life after marriage. Funny enough, this lady is a student. he wrote.
He continued;
“I deliberately refused to mention the name of the man, lady and families involved because it is not really about them. It is about us. We have to condemn such developments in Tiv land. You may say “or maa wan na ior mbera ga”. But life is a circle. Today it is that poor young man. Tomorrow, it will definitely not be him. “Shin kem gema been ken tar Tiv ase”? Shi mde ve.”

Nigerian cultures generally enslave people in need. Same in politics, education, marriage etc

My brother, dollar has gone up! ! Lol

Thought we ve seen it all with Imo state, not knowing that the Tivs are preparing a surprise for us!!!

Nah to use her do money ritual

If I pay that amount on any girl eh, I will owe her no atom of faithfulness because I bought her with my hard earned cash.

I go dey bring home all sizes of girls every night and fvck them real hard in my masters bedroom.

If she dare cheat eh, na once I go ask her people to refund my bride price.

Na better investment be that o. Hehehehehe

See bros, If ur supposed in-laws refuse to cut that price by three quarters pls go and look for a lady u can marry with 500k, then use the 1million left to start a business. Soon ur supposed in-laws will come seeking employment with you.

But if the lady is worth it and u have the money tor go ahead.
But ......it's not easy joor.

when I marry her I go use all money on top her p=$$Y
