This is actually something I was reading about yesterday... It's a major tribal group found at the boundary between Nigeria and Cameroon. The backwardness on this side of the world is practically unbelievable, the worst I have ever seen. These guys practically live in the mountains, and have very minimal contact with the outside world, it's a tradition that they where born into and know no better. |

Nigerian journalism and sensationalim are 5 and 6. I can bet my last bulk this report was exaggerated. I am Cross River now and I can say that pepper, tatashe and salt have added to the cultural practice to attract readers. |

Who is shocked? This is basically the definition of marriage in Nigeria: buying of women! |

maestroferddi: It's a traditional thing my brother, I am in cross river and in that very community, the story is very true but they also share the same culture with akwaya district in the English speaking Cameroon...infact they have almost the same language and the thing is very real https://mobile.camerounweb.com/CameroonHomePage/features/The-broken-lives-of-Akwaya-s-Money-Women-324762 |

CastedDude: We black people laid down the precedent on how other race of people should treat us, and boy, have they treated us the way we have handled ourselves, like Shyte. I wonder who instituted this paedophiliac practice in the name of settling debts, and I wonder why the clergymen haven't spoken about this evil act. |

beylinko: You would be surprised how many other parts and cultures in southern Nigeria also practice it - with all their education. Check for example Ebonyi State, particularly Abakilliki, they also have a long tradition of child marriage - yet their youths would also join in insulting northerners. https://www.nairaland.com/3320703/shocking-culture-child-marriages-southern 1 Like |

These re the same civilise pple who wud rain insults and abuse the North over a similar revelation. If one of these was to happen in the north it wud definitely hit the headlines in national dailys in stark hypocritical journalism like we see everyday. Even the drugs and codeine abuse has taken such a dimension This is the reason I no longer read newspapers. Junk journalism 2 Likes 2 Shares |

It makes headlines every year,but nothing is done at the end of the day. I've known this for several years now,the government of Cross River & Nigeria is very aware of this money marriage culture in Becheve, but they have not done anything about it. Several letters have been sent, I guess they don't want to dirty their hands in poor people's affair |
