This is what we called Afonjic lie from the pit of hell
Someone is telling you what is obtainable in his culture, you are calling him a liar.

Yorubas do not sell their daughters..... Take it or leave it.

Brideprice in Nigeria is one of the characteristics of the low mentality existing in Nigeria culture, those calling 24 naira are being untruthful, after spending millions the family will fraudulently give you a receipt of amount below 1000 naira.

Low mentality and Fraud being part of the average Nigerian psyche.

Bride Price is not a stupid tradition but the Igbo bride price is!

my lecturer in 100 level boldly stated that left to him, bride price will be in millions because the value of a female child to her parents can never be understated.

that is what I was saying when you said if one ends up marrying a prostitute...as if a person will purposely do that...those who are whor..ing didnt put it on their face when they were about to be married.... so dont write as if people deliberately marry them...


back to what I said before ...after paying so much for the bride prize ...those who act to justify why their itching puss...y need to be scratched because their husband is away...na kasala be that...because a head may fall off

Please when next outsiders are talking about these things, please you Mbaise people need to shut the fawk up.
Why will they not gree for you, are you not their kinsman.

At the end of the day, as with all things ibo, it all boils down to current and future economics.
They can sell give her to you for cheap because they know that if you have daughters and want to marry out their granddaughter, as a kinsman, you will in the future come and ask them what they want to add on the list for them. Thus by letting you have her easily than some outsider, they ensure that wealth still keeps making its way into the village.

But if you were an outsider, they know after this one nothing for them again. They can't be too sure when they will get something from you again. So naturally, you would have to pay everything on their list. That is when you see people arguing that the 100 yams you bought are too small and will be counted as half so you have to either go additionally buy 50 bigger yams or 100 of the same size.

And I know you know what I'm saying is true.
Your corner-corner Igbotic logic to detract from the core facts are pointless.

a pastor went to marry an Mbaise girl. The brides dad and kinsmen received the bride price after it has been paid and give his blessings to the union. Immediately after, he pulled out #100 naira only, put it his pocket and gave the rest back to his inlaws. During the weeding, he gave the young man a pathfinder.

Bride price does not mean buying the woman, it is a cultural symbolism that shows that the man has the wherewithal to take care of another mans daughter
I didn't read anywhere the OP complained about bride price, i read list or dont you know the difference?

safarigirl:
they are advocating for the banning of the list AND bride price... Take your own advice

Someone asked how much is bride price in my village and I responded, did he ask about any list?

Even the list in my village cannot pass 150k at most....Mbaise is obviously the only part of Igbo land where they charge outrageous fees....the annoying thing is that parts of Rivers state also have outrageous fees, but nobody comes online to whine about it
You are ignorant about igbo traditions, i will allow you enjoy your ignorance.

Igbo traditions are not one and the same. My own part of Igbo land is more Efik than Igbo sef.

If you cannot correct an assumed ignorance, then it can be assumed you know nothing either and are just putting up a reuse, custodian of Igbo tradition

grin everything on the list should be what new wifey will be taking to her new home. You know it would be like doubling the expenses of the new family grin if otherwise.

PDPGuy:
Well, as the bride is marrying into a different family, there is no need for the groom to give her anything on the list.
