It's true na but that does not mean you won't buy drinks and cook food for some that will attend.

And the only encouraging thing here is that Urhobo women don't cheat in marriage. It's a very big taboo, reason why most of their women comes with a very high mileage before marriage 😂😂


Who wants to cheat will cheat. Forget those taboo of a thing. Some of these reckless and immoral individuals give no f'ck.

A southern girl even told me that in their culture, when women cheat, it is their husbands that the taboo's negative effect affects (he will die a sudden death) if he is aware that his wife is cheating and secretly forgives her, continue to eat her food and have intimacy with her.

Just imagine one person committing offense and another innocent person suffering its consequences. Any sense in that? I just told her I don't believe that trash and that anyone who commits, will so suffer its consequence alone too.

A girl I am currently seeing is telling me the cost of her bride price is #120 that once I pay that..20 naira will even be handed back to me because she is not for sale. I asked her if that's all for the traditional marriage.. she said from there if we want to do big ceremony it's our choice. I think I am about to be scammed into marriage, something I might regret in the long run.. and I still wonder why her elder brother is still single (in his 40s) if marriage is cheap over there.

I wouldn't want a case whereby after doing that I will be presented an unexpected list of things to provide.

Hey chap cheesy Well that is for you. As for me, when i wanted to marry my yoruba woman, i paid N1.5million as bride price not that i have the money but because of the love i have for my wife. but when we broke up, i fought with her parents and they refunded the money. They even added N500k interest with it making it N2m.

I don't know when Yoruba people started collecting bride price. Most families would tell you that their daughter is not for sale. Though, you might be asked to pay other little little money to different groups in the family and present simple items on the list given to you.

You should be very scared if you’re on some fvck shi. My bride price was a holy book (Koran, bible etc) no monetary value, this meant that you can’t come and cry later on if I decide you didn’t meet up to my expectations. If you want your investment back, I can give it to you and walk away free.

Op, you should be very worried because such a woman is showing you that you didn’t feed anyone and so nobody owes you nothing if you start to act stupid.

120 naira na for dowry,you go still collect marriage list where Dem go write many things when you go provide on the marriage day, though the items listed can still be negotiated down a bit but die to present inflation standards,you might need to have at least 800 k to clear that list.

PrinceofSarcasm:


Thank you for proving my point. I mean you are at the gutter level in life . You can't even speak proper English and yet you are talking about marriage?

Seems you want to raise more street urchins and fatherless touts who will grow up to add to the massive number of armed robbers everywhere?

Didn't you learn from your own terrible childhood?

You have no business talking about marriage.

Your write up, your history on this forum and everything shows you are a very low value man ,hence it makes me wonder what sort of street waif agreed to take.on such a worthless surname.

She must have been about to commit suicide and sees marriage to you are a lady resort. Because I can bodly tell you that no woman of substance or self worth will marry your type.
grin
@the bolded, is good English now criteria for getting married? , eyin fans mi, ema tun gbami😹😹

You are not being scammed.I also want you to know that bride price is diff from traditional marriage expenses.
In Abia State, govt set it at #120,my community set theirs at #70 and that's what my husband paid .If paredvanture the marriage is nullified,that is what would be refunded to you .

Even if you spend millions on TM and don't pay this one in particular,your wife can disappear one day because she isn't your wife.

@Op what she told you is the bride prize not traditional rites (which will include but not limited to drinks for traditional,clothes,palm whine ,foods,canopies etc)
You may spend 1m for all those things but what you will pay as bride prize could be that #120.

Know this and have peace .

Marriage is not like going to school or University. If you have doubts or reservations, then don't do it. You need to be certain that this is a journey you intend to carry through.

The Lord be with you.

Some part of Esan(Edo central) will only collect 24 naira as Bride price. Not every tribe is out to sell their daughter
