Ooh....Ekere ya eke..

That thing is somehow...And na y some men dont regard their wife after paying all those things..They will feel like she is a package they purchased.

For my cousins, I will find the way to influence my uncle to make sure he isn't selling them.

Truth is, it is an issue that needs to be addressed. It is long overdue.

Talk to your fellow men, once upon a time, your male ancestors sat down to deliberate on how to extort valuables from suitors, they started to expand and elongate the list over the years according to the perceived pocket of the would-be-husband when they saw the profit derived from the venture, so talk to your fellow men.

Tougher economic situations will be an Impedance...

Most times it depends on the parents...If they are contented...Some do slash the agreed lists and dowry...I know s family friend...He never collected dowry for his two sis..His late dad instructed him not to.

And na good In-laws them get...Very healthy inter-family relationships amongst them..

Munzy14:

Really discouraging.

That is good.

Any young man that says that he cannot get married because of marriage list is actually not serious and ready.

You have been bleeping her for free and you want to take someone's daughter with handkerchief money as a wife.

Anything not paid for is not valued. When I become president I will make bleeping outside marriage a capital offence.

God go help us...Economy is scary....Only business folks will understand better....9am-5pm people won't feel it much..except when they visit markets.

True...

When you are ready for particular lady, even her price is high, you won't see it a big deal....

People talk BS about these things when they are truely not ready in all aspects.

I’d say business owners are better off because costs of living keep on increasing(almost on a daily basis), while the salary remains the same.

Munzy14:

Traditional wedding.

Prices increase almost every time we go to get supplies. It’s no joke!
Remember back then when you told me that one egg would soon be sold for a hundred naira? Well, we’re almost there prophet Munzy!

It’s scary to imagine how Nigeria would be like before 2023.

Si ya kee ga gi ncha.
I ga sa nwuli?

No mata how bad the country is, some people are smiling...Nothing pass business...9am-5 no get guarantee...

Yeah. That’s right.
No matter how bad a situation is, some people must benefit from it.

Most employees are overworked these days.
Exploitation of humans is the order of the day in Nigeria.

Exactly why I said we get the memo first, wail over it and adjust gradually before 9-5..

You know egg is the cheapest protein now, yet it's going up gradually...Me av stopped thinking about the situation...living everyday to the best I can...I can't kill myself...


No, It's not ncha o..lol.
Grace found him..A company from One of the European countries contacted him to source some native hausa fruits and ship them...

Ego kariri regarding the exchange rate...So ndi ahu juru ya ugbo ala o ga a like, ya si ha hilux a week later, alert a suo..

O na akwa do i ga Ghana soon...to source more..

Abundant grace.....mu na ndi ncha anaghi eme ko o...I believe in Genuine legit organic hustle...When the money start coming, even witch no fit stop am..

More of slow and steady rise.

This is the worst time for 9-5 people...Economy is crying...Some go on credit before month end.

But no think am o....Just accept the realities and keep pushing.. Consistency is key...This is year for the courageous...

Not everyone sleeps with a girl before marriage, so your assertion is wrong

Nobody is against marriage list, but it should be reasonable. Marriage list shouldn't be a poverty alleviation scheme to enrich families

No be small wailing.

Egg is now one for the former price of two.

No, It's not ncha o..lol.

Not many people can do that.

I wonder what it looks like...

Shea nuts? They say west African Shea is one of the most sought after.
Since white people discovered it’s benefits, especially for their type of skin, its worth have increased.

I hear kolanut is highly sought after too.
