"Remarry" as you ascribed to the man without severing the first marriage is not correct (especially if he had a court marriage). However, the Igbo tradition just as in some other tribes permits a man well to do to marry more than one wife (though with the full consent of the first wife). Therefore, in the case of Mazi Kalu Ikeagwu he cannot "remarry" until the embattled marriage is formally severed inline with customary law of the land.

This topic is crucial for the younger generation who know little or nothing about culture/tradition. There are things that cannot just be wished away. If you do not know endeavour to ask questions.

what will happen in the case of divorce if the man did not pay bride price? Or if the parents of the girl accepted only drinks and other stuff to assist the man, so in this case what should be returned?

Corrections.

Any child she conceived from another man will either be accepted or rejected by the former husband if the bride price is not returned.
Nobody will force him to accept a child that is not his unless he choose to. And the illegitimate child will never inherit anything unless the man choose to allow it.

On the other side, the lady can't remarry unless the bride price is returned while the man can remarry multiple times sef without collecting the first bride price.

In Igbo tradition, it's a man's world

pepperdemzombie:

That's why they kill themselves over inheritance, most of them are not the legitimate ones to inherit, and they are always greedy.
Just imagine the son your woman brought from outside to be older than your legitimate daughters or you eventually don't have a son.
You die, he inherits you, the mother marries another man, he inherits mother and son plus your properties while your legitimate daughters eat leftovers or nothing.
