I’ve been seeing some marriage lists with insane requirements running into millions of naira on the internet lately and there’s something that actually interests me about it.

In the generations of our ancestors when this lists were curated, 99% of the brides then were virgins and have never known any man, in fact it was a taboo traditionally to give out a non virgin wvman as a bide then.

Over the years civilization have changed alot of things where wvmen feel they’re now more powerful and have grown beyond being accountable to their families and can literally do whatever they like with their lives and bodies.

At this point, I think it’s fraudulent for families to keep insisting that non virgin wvmen should keep enjoying the same traditional marriage benefits as older generational virtuous wvmen that kept their virginity for their husbands.

The government and traditional leaders need to look into this critical issues, non virgin wvmen should be given out in marriage for a token or for free, while virgin wvmen should keep enjoying the full traditional marriage rites of previous generations.

These is the only way we can hold our wvmen accountable and also encourage them to become like the biblical virtuous wvmen like Esther and Rebecca.

As a man, I will feel cheated if I have to pay millions of naira to marry a non virgin wvmen, exactly the same amount of money and expenses that my father paid for my mum as a young fresh virgin wvmen in the early 90s.

I know some persons will disagree with me but!

Government should not put hands into the traditional marriage institution. If you don't like the list, what stops you from marrying from another region or country? After all, you said that the Nigerian girls are not virgins. Go and find the virgin and marry. Benin Republic , Ghana, Rwanda - there are plenty of African countries to choose from.

Oga just impregnate the bitch, the list go reduce or they f**k off

My friend's list I saw last week carry bread and sardine wtf mehn

Glorified olsho wey p**sy don wide like ocean , that will break your heart on top, u want to use millions to marry

That list there is crazy

Odunharry:
Wahala no dey finish. I think the problem atimes does not come from the girls immediate family, but the extended family and village people who demand all sort of things from the husband to be.

Thank you

This people are heartless

After marriage na
If you become rich

Na them go fill the person

shortIGBOman:
IGBO People no go gree

This fulani Islamic terrorist always mention Igbo for no reason.

This list is rubbish. This needs to be scrapped and revised as soon as possible. Then after bringing all these, you expect the man to be happy with the bribe thereafter. smh
I thank God for the village I married into ie Odekpe, Anambra State. The list did not give me headache, and most of their girls are homely and respectful.

Rochas pegged the bride price of Imo girls at 10k

Blame hungry, greedy and wicked family not government.

Nothing concern government on this it's Igbo Amaka people culture they should talk to their elders

Which list marriage and burial rites should be looked into by traditional rulers and I know this is from South-East and South-South Geopolitical zones.

I most greet and salute the Oba of the Ancient City and Kingdom for His Royal Highness and wisdom on this matter before now.

Oba Atope E ise.... Forgive my not very precise with the connotation for the Oba......

Long live the Oba ..........

This is exactly the marriage list I got from Akwa Ibom state where I got married
It didn't end there..on my traditional marriage the same youth blocked road and I still settle them again and also settle the women
Guess what, my wife has had many bfs

RestructureNig3:


This fulani Islamic terrorist always mention Igbo for no reason.

Go back and re-read my initial coment. I've update the coment. You read it when I was trying to book a space.

Op. There are merits in some points you raised. But asking gov to intervene in such issue may be far fetched.
Question is, op you sure say you Wan marry?

Marriage is Unnecessary .
Baby mama and papa is surest.

No Limitations .
Total Freedom

Everything is money to an Igbo man. No values, that's why many of their young men are languishing in various prison facilities across the globe. They need to meet the obnoxious cultural demands of a simple thing as marrying a wife. God bless the Yoruba race.

ShoeWorld2:
There are more important things to be done by government than looking into individuals marriage lists.





I sell beautiful sneakers at affordable prices

How much please?

PrettyBolu:
Some pride price do not make sense at all. One of my uncles met a woman who is from the east and wanted to marry her. This woman is a baby mama for one wayward guy o. She dated that guy and lived 6 years with the guy before they separated. I do not know what my uncle saw in that kind of woman.

He went to her place to marry her and they brought list running to N700,000. For what? For this expired thing? Our family members that went with my uncle got angry. Argument here and there. The bride pride price wasn't paid. They agreed to meet again.

When they got back Lagos, relatives did a good job at convincing him that she is not worth it. That was how the relationship start going down until they finally separated.

This is Super Story

Na mumu dey marry refurbished whoree (non-virgin).

I married my wife without any of these nonsense traditional stuff. If them no gree, make them keep their daughter

It's mostly always the extended family members and not the immediate family. It's not compulsory you marry who you cannot afford. Men are greedy. Chase women your pocket can afford. And unless you're a virgin man, you have no right to a virgin woman.

Oga the bottom line of your story is that. YOU ARE TOO STINGY. Stop complaining and go and look for money. Marriage is meant for the matured minds not mediocres.Iam a man, but I will literally tell you that no woman is CHEAP. Marriage is not what you get with 15k. There is a price to pay. Funny enuff Govt has nothing to do concerning this issue. Even the Senate president will pay the bride price if he wants to marry from my village. Just 2 Bible verses to butress my point that marriage has its price.
Exodus 22:16-17: "If a man seduces a virgin who is not pledged to be married and sleeps with her, he must pay the BRIDE-PRICE, and she shall be his wife. If her father absolutely refuses to give her to him, he must still pay the bride-price for virgins."
2 Sam 24:24...
But the king replied to Araunah, “No, I insist on buying it, for I will not present burnt offerings to the LORD my God that have cost me nothing.” So David paid him fifty pieces of silver for the threshing floor and the oxen.

There is always a sacrifice to pay. Go hustle bro and stop complaining. The best the family can do is to amend the list a little.

Lol

Nothing to do with the government.

This is a decision communities will need to come to, starting from the individual families. But why would they when the beneficiaries are milking the hell out of it

Unfortunately Nigeria is very community centred so it’s not like the people who are actually getting married can just walk away from such traditions (if they want) easily without all that family politics nonsense hounding them

To be honest ify in-law charge me 700k I will be happiest man on earth. That's chicken change to love of my life.

Nothing concern government for here....na person wey get money dey marry...abi you wan make the government marry for you

I can agree with you a bit but not totally.

You see, most of the requirements are negotiable. And some are not compulsory. From where I'm from the list are divided into 2 sections.
I. Compulsory items (This sections are not really expensive.)
II. Negotiable items (this sections has to do with this for the father, mother, elder brother/sister, Otu (big and small families) most times they would even tell you to forget about it. They they elders ask them if you have given them their own they would say yes.

From my side bride price is 20naira.

It is not everything that the government would solve for you.
Very soon you people would also ask the government to review how many times a couple can have sex.

Your emphasis is on being a virgin well that is not or less the issues but the economical and monetary issues as well as status issues too.
Then female have a confined placement but now there is no restrictions so for me in the first place where does this obnoxious list emanate from?
From the Bible days there is nothing like that in fact it is when a virgin is raped that the man pays, hence the language then was given in marriage but now it's selling in marriage.
