Goodlady:
That's handful. I dunno how my folks will handle mine but I expect nothing less than N5m worth of items. I am worth more but make I no stress my boo too much.
If bride price is a woman's worth, then you are worthless with N5m.

That amount is a not even up to a week wage for a 1 year contract of a male football player.

Aunty, bride price is not payment for human life.

Is Egbema one of the 500 Nigerian tribes or a dialect of one of the major tribes?
Yankiss:
No, except there is divorce. Return of bride price spells end of marriage.

So I don't think it's that much... grin grin grin
