Recently, let me say two to three weeks ago, my mom came back from church, discussing about an upcoming traditional marriage and wedding ceremony of the daughter of one of her church members with my dad. They were busy, I mean my mom and dad were busy talking about how the groom is a wealthy man and how the marriage will be glorious

I didn't even pick interest because I got better things to think about.
The bride-to-be is a graduate from akwa ibom, while the groom-to-be, on the other hand, is a pastor of one popular church in Nigeria, I won't mention the name of the church because not all their pastors are the same.

When they started the relationship, the pastor was rushing everything, he was like he can't wait to marry this pretty damsel.

According to the story, the parents of the both families have met each other, and some part of the traditional marriage has been done.
Everything was going according to plans, they even brought out a pre-wedding photo, which I myself saw on her Facebook. Here is how the marriage took a new twist,

Now, three days to the traditional marriage, the groom-to-be came out and said he's not getting married to the Bride anymore, that is no longer interested in the marriage.

When they asking why, he said it was because of the bride price list they gave to him.

Now, his church said there's no problem about that, that they will sponsor everything, the pastor still vehemently insisted that he is no longer interested in the marriage...

The parents of the girl said the marriage list is always open for negotiation, that it is not compulsory to pay everything at once, or even everything no the list to be paid,The young man still said no.

Now the marriage has been called off and the girl is heart-broken.

My Mom follow the mother of the bride-to-be to do the shopping.
They even invited so many people to the marriage ceremony but it unfortunately ended in the most unbelievable way...

What could possibly be the reason behind his decision?
Can a man go as far as performing some traditional marriage rite just to sleep with a girl?
Could it be because of the list?
Or can infantuation drive a man to do the unthinkable?
Could it be spiritual manipulation or just the matter of choice?

Wahala. Rush russh for what?! She probably dodged a bullet. There is more to this than the length of the list.make pastor talk true abeg

Fear men. Na wa ooo

He alone know what he saw before entering and he alone know what he saw before exiting

Post the list and you would see reasons why the young man backed out, though,that was too insensitive of him.

But my question is, why do some parts in Nigeria make traditional weddings full of unnecessary items ? I thought items are supposed to be symbolic, why all the financial burden especially if the "couple to be" are just starting life.

It's not nice.

That's true.

Maybe the bride to be didn't tell him her past life and he was able to find out.

May we be guided by the Lord in all aspects

Better be a divorcee than a corpse.

Wise guy! His own father's son! A broken Courtship is incomparable to a broken Marriage; yet, it's much more preferable. A bad wife is better than evil in-laws, as they say. Only the Elders know how many Spouses have lost their lives just because they thought: What would people say!

im coming

Interesting

The post says the church volunteered to sponsor the entire marriage list. Also, marriage lists are always negotiable.

Na the man Sabu why he scamp

He must have seen something he didn't like. There is this girl I am dating now, when we started chatting she told me she was a virgin with her own mouth o and she has only had one bf before, I didnt ask her about the virgin part and it wasn't like I was looking for a virgin. Then after a month she changed mouth that she had sex with her former bf, and it was only with him she has ever had sex with(she made a statement then that it isn't possible for a bf and gf not to have sex together, so I questioned her about, after like 3 month again without asking she told me again that she lied then, that she had another bf she didn't tell me about and they so had sex multiple times, that it is guilty conscience that made her talk. Imagine I wanted to marry her and she keeps lying to me every time and this is someone who keeps telling me she isn't ready for sex even when I have never asked her about it.

E go be

People have cold feet before marriage for all sorts of reason. We are not in the man's mind to know what he is thinking.

It' maybe either one of these reasons
May b d juju don clear or
D pastor don chop n clean mouth... So girls should be careful of opening their legs anyhow. Or rather
D pastor hear d tape or caught d girl in a dirty affair, hence his decision...... Being a girl child is very delicate.

He has use her to play handicap.

His probably not saying to save the lady some embarrassment. Better to quit than regrets for life.

He might not have seeen anything. Some womanizer are like that. I know a banker friend of mine that did thesame he even went as far as printing fake wedding card and taking pre wedding pictures just to bed the girl for some time. And still found one reason to leave her.
