The Reasons Why Igbo Marriage Is Expensive And Secret Way Out by buchibrand(m): 2:42pm On Dec 13, 2017
IGBO MARRIAGE IS FAR MORE
CHEAPER THAN WHAT YOU THINK
AND WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING.

*Getting married to an Igbo lady is
very cheap if you know the secret.

NOTE: Igbo
communities have different categories
of list.

If you want to marry an igbo lady
and you don't have much to
spend, please:

* Go to her place with her, sit
down with her parents and
explain yourself to them. Tell
them you would have loved to
do a lavish party and make
them proud, but can't afford it
at the moment; then promise
to make it up to them when
you are fully settled. Assure
them you love their daughter
so much, you will love her
forever, and you will take
good care of her and the
family at large.

* "Brain wash" your bride to be
into convincing her parents/
family that you are the very
best for her and she can't do
without you.

* Please before you leave that
village, make a friend,
preferably a poor, popular and
truth-saying old man (just buy
him snuff (N200 IS ENOUGH)
he will guide you into all truth
and help on the day you will
be facing the Umunna).

* And on the day of the
traditional rites, do not fail to
go with an outspoken, fearless
and vibrant elder from your
own side (with such a fellow
and the elder you have
"bribed" earlier, you will not
have to say a word till
everything is concluded).

If you follow all these steps
faithfully, you will know that there
are different lists for different
category of people (this is why
those earring hawking guys get
married without much stress). Over blotted list for big boys and slim list for average people, NO long list for
poor dudes they just provide the
basic things and walk away with
their bride.

BASIC REQUIREMENTS TO GET
MARRIED IN IGBO LAND.

1. The first stanza of the list (palm
wine, snuff, ..., less than #10,000)

2. The bride price (less than #1000
Naira). Every other thing on that
list is jara and you can do without
it, but your father and mother in-
law MAY not get share when other
people children get married.


If you are a poor dude, you
will just pay the basics and walk
away with your bride but your
wife's parents will pray for you
and beg you also to come back
and wipe away the shame, when
God blesses you. But that does not
mean you are not fully married.

WHY IS MARRIAGE
SEEMINGLY EXPENSIVE IN
IGBOLAND?

1. Show of wealth(show them that
you have made the money).
2. I want to belong (i must do my
own like Mr A)
3. What will people say ("they will
now say my own daughter got
married to a poor man who
could'nt afford all the items on the
ambiguous list"wink.
4. Personal ego ("i want my in-law
to come with a jeep, my daughter
must marry a rich obodo oyibo
husband"wink.
6. Feeding of the nation (lavish
traditional wedding ceremony)

WAY OUT: opt out of traditional
wedding ceremony, just provide
them with the basic requirements
and walk away with your wife after
taking the accompanying blessings
(the best and most easiest way of
doing it now is to do everything in
cash, give them the money
equivalent of all the basic
requirements and that's all).

Some guys went into 419, made huge money and came back home to marry; so it was that when they were asked for just one item, they will double it 10x.
Then the second sets of people
that caused
the inflation of the lists, where the
obodo oyibo (over sea) guys, they
came and threw money at
umunna in away that no one has
ever done.
Now no family will
want there's to be anything
different, and that is the genesis
of the whole problem.

I wonder why you need to feed a whole community for the sake of getting married, what's the gain?

Igbo Marriage is expensive so that jobless incapable people like you won't spread their lazy seed through our daughters.

Since you're ignorant, every community has 1 list for bride price and it's not negotiable. More importantly nobody will give you their daughter for nothing because you want to throw a party that's not even a part of the culture.

This is how you'll use your penniless dick to go to someone's home and embarrass yourself. As a groom you're not even allowed to discuss bride price with her village elders lol.

Obviously your 16 years old and pointless
