After the wedding, what next?

olaniyilukman:
This is not a matter of easy going, instead of paying by his dowry, the dpo should have used the fund to empower the husband to be

You should have read the story instead of reading only the headline.

What good has he done to the young man.
He should've encouraged him to further his education.

TheNiceGuy:
But they can be commuting adultery?

Life isn't that hard to live in the North as in South, they'll eating and other necessities will be taken care of.

Ask those who are great today, they started almost in same way.

you're being watched

Person wey no fit pay 20k for your head, na im you go marry?!

Just imagine stupid people, they claim Aliyu is hard working yet he can not provide #20k for over period of time, which can of hardwork is that now? Now he will begin to born bandits

Ok

DrChukki:
Getting married is one thing... Meeting up with family responsibilities is another thing.

A man that couldn't pay 20k, how can he take care of his wife and family? I pray God intervenes for him.

But myself, I can't do such gesture... A man that can't pay his wife's dowry is not ready yet for marriage.

Simple!

The only thing I saw is that the DPO is a fellow Northern Muslim ,Lawan Abdullahi

But come to the South , you wouldn't find a Southerner occupying the DPO office , it's still the Aliyu's, Isa's , Musa's and Abdullahi's ...

This country isn't balanced at all

About to born children you can not feed and train all because of love chai, there by giving birth to terrorist, hoodlums or kidnappers. There is God ooo

OmoGomesIlorin:


News headline can be sensational sometimes.
The 20k may be the main dowry fee. Based on the news content, the total amount contributed should be 104k. From DPO 53k, groom family N51k.

Ok thanks for clarification. Hopefully they'd find some business and start and not waste it all.

LUAN:
no, soup is soup Bro. Ask him well, he will tell you that soup is soup ..literally
Food is just the major things In a human race, back in the days, there was no other billing than money for food

In recent times,soup money is expanded to various billings.God help the man, if his wife is not a help mate.

I remember years back when I married, i had about 2m left after expenses but 3months into marriage i had less than 400k. Marriage isn’t for the broke!!!

DPO is a Police DCP he can afford to give them that from his salary without stress

Kudos to the D.P.O.
But can one be hardworking and can't provide 20k.
After payment of dowry and marriage, how do they survive...?

YelloweWest:
The poverty in the north is too much.

You can't marry with 2m naira in Portharcourt presently, except you impregnate the girl and just "do small thing for her head"

why ll I use 2m to Marry a Lady when I node work for Chevron or be footballer??

sleek214:
E no cost, make him go help a non Igbo man trying to marry an Igbo lady from Imo or Anambra.

Who you help? Learn to appreciate people. Thumbs up for the DPO, may God bless him. I wish the couple happy married life

tishbite42:
Person wey no fit pay 20k for your head, na im you go marry?!

Love is beyond monetary value.

Can igbo or yoruba DPO do such thing?

Despite hausa's fanatic behaviour that are 10,000 times better than DPO from the aforementioned tribes.
I was once stranded on a trip and and hausa man helped me out after reaching to our Christian people from the South.

IF YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW.

whippersnapper:
I'm i the only one who finds this post funny.

It is not funny, it is amazing and wonderful gesture

complexstuffs:


This is not about the south east.

Northerners particularly the Muslims are easy going people.

Please, what's the correlation between Region and religion and my comment...?

whippersnapper:
I'm i the only one who finds this post funny.

It funny n smhw educating. People from other angles can help in such situation if they're buoyant. This might help to reduce marriage for money.
In this our Northern part, it may surprise you that both parties are under 18s, but it not forbidden with our region to marry, but u shld be able to cater for her, that's the deal.

Porksupplyib:
Not a bad gesture from the DPO. However I just hope oga DPO will continue to donate money for family upkeep?

Na olodo you be. They made mentioned he is hard working but not financially bouyant.

tishbite42:
Person wey no fit pay 20k for your head, na im you go marry?!

I tire o my brother. Dem dey help man pay bride price? U are not even supposed to borrow money or beg for Bridde price from anyone. There is something beyond physical with bride price cos it has lots of spiritual connotations

TemplarLandry:

Give DPO one better song na

blackdover:
How will they sustain the marriage ?

I asked again.

Same question I asked also.

Most people don't understand the writeup or never understood it. It was started that the groom is hardworking, but not financially bouyant. It clearly shows he has a brighter future ahead of him. Mind you, Marriage attract special blessing from Almighty God.

You should have read the story instead of reading only the headline.

I read everything and I am saying the facts here, how do you explain it to reasonable individuals that a man who can't afford #20k to pay his bride dowry can take up financial responsibility attached to marriage

tishbite42:

Man must nack wack

DrChukki:

The correlation is glaring.

Northern Muslim girls are not for sale and don't go to the highest bidder

Canopy chairs and decorations alone will be more than 2m

Any correct man will go for that. If the hoe won't stick with you when you're down, then she aint worth it
