That statement from such a lady is grossly irresponsible and this goes to show how irresponsible the father is for not marrying her mum properly and for u,u had better leave the road u walkng on.

I don't think u r the one to pay the bride price. The girls father has to pay his wife's bride price so he can be eligible to collect his daughter's bride price
I guess you didn't digest the write-up, here dad is late. The mum is a widow

It's normal, the mother bride price must be paid before hers. As a man, if you don't pay your wife bride price and you can't collect your daughter's bride price.
Party will follow the payment?

Trust me, Africa has some of the most stupid, useless traditions...

I love Africa though...

Where I'm from, a widow must shave her head and sleep on her husband's grave for a week after his death...

There are many...

Even the bride price thing doesn't make sense to me...
Mumu traditions

It is like that where I come from as well. Its nothing like double bride price... its just little things most times less than 10 percent of what you'd spend paying your wife to be bride's price

A daughter can't be married when the mom is not according to out tradition.

Modified: the bride price can be paid by anybody in the family either her brothers or her son if she have a grown son.
Then any of her family members should do the needful and not disturb me, haba.
Let's assume i should pay, what's next after that? I go come dea lash her too ni?

Late 30s could be 38.
Say the girl is 20. Her mum gave birth to her at 18.

Why asking her age? Is 20 not old enough for marriage? Or giving birth at 18 is a sacrilege in your village?
She's 21

Lol... grin

Many things we do in Africa don't make sense...

You're not getting married to her mother, why should you pay the woman's bride price?

A way for the family to cashout? undecided
The whole stuff is just looks funny to me.

The other option is for me to wait till someone else gets married and pays her mum's price, for how long i won wait

Good morning nairaladers, pls pardon my errors.

I met this girl late last year, she's nice, godly and has most of the qualities i want in a wife. i love her, though her dad is late and her mum should be in her late thirties.

Yesterday we were chatting and she was like her dad didn't do the necessary rites on her mum and hence according to tradition i will have to pay her mum's bride price to her family before i will be allowed to start her own (my babe) marriage rites. I just weak cos have never heard of such. Where i won see the money for double bride price?

Pls nairaladers, have any of you come across such ridiculous tradition or she's making it up herself cos i feel like quiting the whole thing.
I just tire. Your opinions are welcomed

Modified: she's from obiaruku in ukuwani local government area of Delta State.

Dr trash collector in public forum,
U just mentioned 2 Ukrainian soldiers without authenticating their names and other identification.
Civil war u did not witness but u choose to be myopic and believe one side of the story.
I stand to be proved wrong, no white will die in blacks matter.
Mention the names of the 2 Ukrainians and their identification so others can authenticate
Google is your friend bro
Read and be enlightened.
Or you go to YouTube and see things for yourself instead of embarrassing your anssestors

See their yeye teeth, them no go call am black monkey now because they r desperate to win the war, after that they will remember our colour is different from theirs. In as much as I support Ukraine in this war, Ukraine and Russia are the most deadly racists ever known so let them war their war and die their die. If this is African war do u think Ukraine can volunteer?
During Nigeria civil war, two Ukrainian soldiers joined biafrans army, get your fact b4 spewing trash on a public forum
