Monogamy:


@ bolded is why one needs to be self independent and self matured when it comes to decision making.

You see for Nigeria eh, things are not really that hard economically compared to other African countries, even some western countries self.

Money flows , some how , some how but the problem is, we spend money on so many unnecessary things.. Let's talk about weekend party itself, some people attend at least 2 weekend parties in a month.. They will buy Aso Ebi, gift present to the person doing the party, spray money to the celebrants all for a plate of rice and chicken and beers.. Something you could afford at the comfort of your house and still save 600%.

Na from there poverty dey start.. Nigeria government should make a law where weddings that do not last up to 2 years, the couples should refund the money for the Aso Ebi..

Government wey never provide basic amenities finish.
Omo 9ja hard...leave talk
Plenty of our guys dey travel to those african countries to make money that they can't make here...e no tell u something?
Am not saying there is no money in Nigeria ooo.

So a man should turn 50 before he marries because he is saving up for it or the parents should give d woman to the man for free because he claims he loves her
Abeg, if ur woman is not worth taking a loan to do d right thing, rest..marriage is for men not boys unugo

SanctifiedSista:


A responsible man won't even tell his woman he is taking a soft loan and d reliable way to pay back means a business contract or a good salary

Monogamy:


On the first instance, why should a guy go to extra miles to get money for his wedding? To impress/oppress who? The wife, Wife's family? The crowd?

Well, all depends on the type of partner and the future plans they both have cos paparazzi wedding shouldn't be on the list of " I never standard people"

The last banker guy from Kogi that took 3m loan for his wedding, the wedding scatter after 2 months, my guy commit suicide one time.

FaAbokiWithSuit:

No sensible woman will let his man take a loan for her wedding. Most times, the wife is oblivious of that loan.
After the wedding party and the crowd goes home, it will remain only you, your wife and the thoughts of a loan to repay

And God help you if it is Sokoloan you borrowed money from. The same people that came to eat and drink and dance at your wedding will receive a text message that you are a criminal on the run with company money.

Monogamy:


Can't they take this same loan for life time business opportunity?

JovialJune:



They can as well use same loan for charity, it is still not your headache.

meobizy:
It won’t shock me. Nigerians are that foolish. Many of us will prefer to hear about our big wedding which happened donkey years ago while soaking garri today — rather than wedding modestly and using saved up money for better things. Na akatas own worse pass. Lol.

FaAbokiWithSuit:
ishilove come and marry me. We will apply for Grant instead of loan

SportsHD:

Why can't they both take loans? Must it always be the dude?

Loan for wedding?

Some people do it and are still paying the money until now....

Myself and my wife saved up our money togther in a separate bank account, that's how we were able to fund our wedding....

Infact we even shifted wedding when we discovered that the required money is not upto our targeted budget (though we have not printed/announced date then)...

I no fit dey pay gbese after people don chop free food finish go their house

Monogamy:


Love your woman? Should people even borrow money for wedding to start with not to talk of loans.

So a guy has means of getting loans all this while and he couldn't take the loans earlier for business that would yield profits to fund the wedding..But waiting until the wedding time to take loams..

Such person can never be responsible in that marriage cos after the wedding, fresh bills would pile up .

And let's look at it this way, someone taking loans for wedding means such person never ready for marriage.. Are there no plans for future?

Must people even do elaborate wedding self if it's something they can't afford comfortably?

Kiasa:


Imagine still paying a bank loan for a wedding years after a couple has divorced. Don't do it people, just save your money for the wedding.

wunmi590:


Some people are still in massive debt as we speak due to their wrong move just to impress people who will just eat their rice and spray them only 1k and japa
