Is it your business if she was forced? Marry your own and smile all you want. This particular bride wants to frown her face. Tradition or not how does it concern you?

Yesterday, there were reports about a visibly “unhappy” bride who wasn’t smiling on the day of her traditional wedding.

The bride identified as Duchess Alexis, has reacted to the reports , and said whatever went down at her wedding is simply tradition.

She noted that in her tradition, which is “Ijaw”, the bride is meant to “Frown” after been ushered in by her friends and sisters, and then the groom and his friends/family are expected to spray her until she laughs.

Here’s what she wrote;

what a tradition!!!!

My question is this.. are this traditional beliefs moving us forward or taking us backwards?

Why would a man spray you money till you laugh?

Does that mean it's only money that can make the women from the community laugh?
Does it mean that the marriage is built on money?

This tradition is just somehow.
