What is the issue with some Ibo people? You guys should stop this nonsense of always trying to force others tribes to be part of you. Are you guys okay?

Definitely too cheap to be Southeast or South-South.


Those people putting ridiculous and exorbitant demands in a bridal list better ensure their young women are truly worth the valuation.

Even in footballl Summer transfers, you can't place high value on a player that lacks the track record or prospects.

That list is from Edo state. Estako side. The salt and cat fish there is what gave it away.
can be from benue state particularly the idoma people

That's practically everywhere, including the greedy and exorbitant parts of the Southeast and South-south.

Knocking up a lady magically crashes all bridal demands.

What of the ijaws in Bonny in Rivers state .

Check your history
Igbos migrated there just as they have migrated to many parts of Rivers State. Ijaws are not even remotely Igbo.
Re: See The Viral Dowry List Prompting Men To Inquire About The Bride’s State. by Sivou1(m): 3:43pm On Jul 08, 2025
Check out Ora people in Edo, their own too is not bad, not as much as this sef. Investigate and thank me later.

Many ignorant folks here thinks dat this list is cheap but little did they know that this alone is for d dowry paying and its the beginning of a host of ceremonies/rituals that made up the traditional marriage ceremony.after paying for dowry there is a second list for the main event (traditional marriage list) in igbo land it's called 'igba nkwu ' na there u go spent millions of naira ..don't get trapped ooo always ask questions before u enter grin grin

A lot of men are scrambling to find out which state this dowry list came from 😂😂😂 Why? It's unbelievably cheap!
na Yoruba, I guess Osun. The downside is, there might be a lot of interference and if you no do well, they might take their daughters back

obviously it can’t be from my Igbo people because I don’t think there is any part of Igbo that will take that list as bride price , they’ll want to use list suffocate you first .

DIVINEEVIDENCE:


Likely a poor rural tribe far removed from the capital city.
Or it's just a decent family that doesn't see marriage as a way of exploiting another person's son
Re: See The Viral Dowry List Prompting Men To Inquire About The Bride’s State. by Princewell2012(m): 3:55pm On Jul 08, 2025
Honestly it is still reasonable it was not because of the expensive nature of things now.

Walahi if you see some list you will know that this person are still very considerate.
This are just normal bridal list from those people from South East and South South.
Re: See The Viral Dowry List Prompting Men To Inquire About The Bride’s State. by EhisChelsea1(m): 3:56pm On Jul 08, 2025
DIVINEEVIDENCE:
1. Rice, 1 bag.
This tribe no fashe rice.
Its not an occasions food.

2. Yam, 41 pieces.
They place value on yams.

3. Salt, 1 bag.
They are a coastal/riverine tribe.
Salt is symbolic.

4. Fruits, 1 basket.
This tribe produces fruits and is likely into commercial and subsistent farming.

5. Schnapps, kolanut, bitter kola, alligator pepper, Bible.
Trado-Christian religion.

6. Honey, Sugar cane.
Definitely not a tribe in all of Southern Nigeria.

7. Catfish.
Definitely a coastal community, involved in both fishing and farming.

8. Malt, groundnut oil, mineral, 5-alive, sugar, family and kindred/community fees all in manageable amounts.

Likely a poor rural tribe far removed from the capital city.


Verdict: Likely a tribe from the South-South or Middle-Belt.
Not true about it being a poor tribe or a place far from the state capital - it is just a matter of custom. But for the cat fish and clothing materials requested, I would have said, it is Esan tribe in Edo State. Remove the Catfish, bag of rice and wrapper and then, add Palmwine and 25 naira cash - that is the dowry/bride price in Esan tribe of Edo State

It's even too much, but still ok compared to that tribe that collect so much up to 95% above what they invested on their daughter, the worst ones are the those who couldn't even train their daughter., still asked higher amount.
