The usage of palmwines given to brides by their fathers/guardians to go give their husbands as an indication that he’s the one she’s getting married to dates to thousands of years ago. The bride is being handed a traditionally crafted cup, Calabash cup or glass cup filled with palmwine and, as she arises from her kneeling position, she then carries the wine, walks around stylishly while in search of her man. Then, when she spots where he’s seated, she kneels before him, sips from the drink, hands the remaining to her man, who then finishes the drink and afterwards puts some cash into the cup. Together, he and his wife walk towards her father, they both kneel to hand over the cup carrying the cash to him and he blesses their union.

Overtime, there have been cases where a groom drinks palmwine given to him by his bride and, he either starts having stomach upset that leads to a dangerous ailment or, he dies. Scandalous! I guess the above only happens in those 5th grade "nollyvoodoo" movies, right? Bar somebody playing tricks on the palmwine(by poisoning it or something), I don't see how a man born of a real man would succumb to or develop stomach upset from drinking a harmless cup of the Sap. If that were to happen to a son of mine{although, I am never having any}, I would disown him and then proceed to question his mother thoroughly. Holy ajara remains the purest of all African saps. I rise! Court clerk, do the needful. 49 Likes 4 Shares |

You should know some people enjoy deviance simply for the fun of it. non adherence to tradition is the major cause of marital crisis of this age, such as domestic violence and separation. Instead of not carrying palmwine because everyone in your community is evil and you're the only righteous one, do a low key one with only family around. It's so important. Non alcoholic drinks have no business with spiritual matters. Traditional wedding is called Igbankwu/ Ibunkwu Which means "palmwine carrying" I have never attended a ceremony where palmwine wasn't used though. 9 Likes 1 Share |

Op, where and when did all the stomach upsets and death from drinking palmwine happen to the groom? I'm hearing this for the first time. You prolly saw all that in the movies. In my place, the culture is still very much in practice and no body has ever experienced stomach upset or died from it. 20 Likes |

A nice indigenous drink.... This is great drink with a sizeable alcohol in it. Though till date it's yet industrialized by anyone or company. As per been used I think it still grazes functions like burials and weddings in the hinterlands. Sometime back then in Ibadan whilst trying to setup my Consumables network of supplies I was shown a nice palmwine joint around Hope area after gbagi by a local which I never failed to visit once a week for a drink and meat treat. Till date I still have the whole experience in my thoughts because though the place was locally built but the intrigue and merry activities where something to behold even when you are done with your own drink and you fail to cover up your cup someone will order for you... It was like a tradition....Lolz @Seniorwriter 1 Like 1 Share |

So true, in my town, palm wine is very costly. |

True but majorly attributed to ama ndi ana eze and umunna ndi ojoo. Igbo traditional weddings are now comfortably being held in Lagos. One held earlier in the year in Lagos, the groom insisted he ain't taking no palm wine he is a born again and his Church detest such fetish ritual and after much argument, his bride finally presented him orange juice! 4 Likes 1 Share |
