Traditional Marriage List In Aboh Mbaise, Imo State by MrRitchie(op): 5:14pm On Nov 14, 2016

I was preparing for work this morning when my elder bro sent this (paper) to me via email.

I once heard if you want to marry a girl from the east you'll have to pay extra $€£¥

Ok, back to the matter, my bro is preparing for his traditional wedding anytime soon.

Below is the list of things they ask him to buy, after I was done with the calculations and all, I got a total of close to #500,000 just to buy things listed in the list.

Mind you the list doesn't include food, drinks, canopies, chairs just to name a few that will be used in the event.

I just said in my mind, Eku tracession wedding.

Could be used as meat for the party or reared to produce offsprings for the bride's father.

This is an Igbo bride price list,they believe they should gain almost all they spent training their girls from the husband.

I wonder why people complain about marriage lists. If you really love the girl you want to marry, nothing is too expensive in paying for the list, otherwise leave her alone and look elsewhere. It's called 'TRADITION' and you can't change tradition.

And to see my crush, priscaoge, just commented below me.

Like seriously? shocked

I'm still proud of my village ARONDIZUOGU anytime anyday tongue

. Bride price is still 25naira till tomorrow, then the list won't cost u more than 150k(plus and minus) but maybe because of recession, prices of stuff in d market go dare (Ask anyone from Izuogu). Anything u wish to buy for the parents is solely from Ur heart and its not included in d list.

I don't think it's true because one part of Mbaise that we went for traditional marriage, there were issues from their Ụmụnna claiming that d list isn't complete. They made so much trouble and insisted that the man should present everything, d groom nearly abandoned the whole thing. It was God's intervention that d case was settled. The bride was just crying because of the way those wicked elders messed her marriage up.

Mod: So a lot of people mentioned me and were saying some stuff about juju! Lol! Calabar and Akwa Ibom have their own masquerade festival, Yorubas have their own masquerade festival and they have what they call it. Our own is "Ikeji" and its our own masquerade carnival! It's our Culture! It's our Heritage! I'm proud of my Culture! I'm proud of my root! I'm proud to be Adamazi!

Haba! It's not like you must compulsory buy these items o.

You gonna tell them the amount you can afford unless you want to show your self as onye ogor.

They look at your pocket too.

After paying such amount, you will value and take care of your wife. grin
