Separation by Max31700(op): 9:31pm On Dec 12, 2025
Hello everybody ! I’m French and live in France. I was married with a Nigerian woman in France( she is Edo woman) . We made a traditional wedding in France but I gave bride price and also money to her family to make a traditional wedding in Nigeria too. But their family never made any celebration with the money that I gave them and now my wife broke up with me. Can I demand to the family to refund me all the money ?

I believe you can demand they refund the bride price to you. As for the money paid towards the celebration itself, unless you have proof of the amount paid to be used specifically for the celebration, and evidence that it was never used or the purpose it was meant for, you may have a hard time getting that back. You may even need to take them to court for that. undecided

Just I’ m feeling scammed, I gave money for the celebration and they used it for themselves ! It was not a small amount, gave them almost 7 million Naira.
