Sadly this isn't the case in akwa Ibom, your billing will increase if the girl gets pregnant before the marriage rite, he would be made to pay "insult money" for that singular act..

Rubbish, I'll rather waste their time than let my money be wasted on a useless list. Which kind dumb tradition be dat?. Them dey find who to exploit.
it's not tradition. it's the family's way of telling you that they are really stupid and well stricken with poverty.

Perhaps there wouldn't have been much fuss had the bride price list of a thing was designed in a way as to establish their daughter in business or even contribute some kind of growth to their community. But no - all they're interested in are beers and underwear, yet some of their people who should know better, don't seem to see the problem with this kind of set up. And any reason why they should? After all it's their ladies who are usually caught in the crossfire.

What many don't realise is that there's a next stage called the "Mfaña stage which simply means disagreement stage. Here, the prospective husband is given the latitude to haggle the propriety or otherwise of the items/quantities stated.

The suitor reserves the right to contest the list and call for a pruning of the overbloated list. I called for it and about 45% of the list was slashed.

However, this age-long and time-honored tradition needs to be reviewed in order to reflect the economic realities on ground.

With the way things are going, there's no marriage for 'broke' fellas.

Sweetheart, I'd rather choose the option of working for your daddy for 7 years to avoid that long list. That long list is damn scary.

You have stolen your father's igho again, desist from taking igho, it's for your own good. Your father is taking it because he knows he is useless to the society, and we don't expect anything good from him at his age but you are still young, we can tap from your adolescent strength used in rape and other vices which you are known for.
Do your self a favor and discard that wrap in your hand now as you are reading this, Christ loves you

Marriage it not opportunity for extortion.

Sorry, marriage is for men not boys. If you're not up to the task, hide your face. The list is negotiable and with your budget, you can conveniently marry an Akw Ibom lady. We don't oppress anyone here. Just be original, don't claim who you're not.

Usually after negotiations you can end up with 1/3 or even half of the items on the list chalked off and the money reduced to something reasonable. It's what it is. They start with something outrageous but in reality they're just hoping to get as much as they can from the suitor. Last last dem go chill collect wetin dey. In most cases I've heard of though.

Uh oh.

But Honey, do we have to care about what the elders and uncles and aunts have to say? Your dad has the final say. I'm sure I can convince him to accept 7 years of my servitude in place of that monumental list. grin

But in the event that he refuses, then I'll try and negotiate with him to whittle down that scary list. smiley I bet he'll agree cos he knows how much I love and adore his daughter. wink
