Shut up...

Who has the language you just wrote with?

Who made the device you're using the write this your nonsense?

Who designed what you studied or are studying in school?

I'm sure you're not putting on plantain leaves to cover your nudity which is your heritage?

Your house, furniture, appliances, car etc aren't your father's heritage.

So what are you not copying from the white man?

You copied everything, but dont want to copy their prudence? That's why a black man never stops wanting even when he can't exhaust that which he already has.

A 60yrs old billionaire wants to be a trillionaire, when it'll take over 55yrs to squander N1billion @ 50k/day.

We are just too wasteful and greedy by nature...
Sense ..Its called selective transcopy ......lol

Just reminded me of a guy that spent close to N6M for his wedding, after 6 months the marriage packed up.. A pathetic ending.. He learnt his bitter lesson, cos at a point before the marriage ended he was a kind of struggling, his company started owing him here and there.

He asked the wife whom after doing her Masters in the UK got a job there, to come back to Nigeria and stay with him, the wife told him that she can't that he should come over to the UK and stay with her, that she can't come to Nigeria and stay, even after the husband promised to get her job in a juicy position (Agip), since his sister was well placed in the company.

They kept on having series of misunderstanding until the marriage finally crashed in what till today still seem unbelievable to the man based on the lady he thought he knew very well when she was in Nigeria.

This guy did an elaborate wedding, lodged the wife's friends that came from abroad in expensive hotels, spent to the tune of N6M for the entire wedding, only for marriage to crash just after 6 months
Exception to the normal. This shouldn't be the reason not to spend on a wedding

Hello guyz, sorry for been the first to comment on my own post.

I'm currently planning for my wedding towards March next year. My self and my wife to be are trying to keep it as simple as possible, if possible just for family members and friends of about 250.
Believe it before I could say jack our budget is already hitting #3.2 million.

The post above was share by a Nigerian base abroad, this made me begin to wonder if it is necessary to even wed at all?
Why spend our hard earned money on wedding of a day?
That money can get us a land or start a little business.

OP, we are Russians (or any other) are different cultures, different ideologies, different religious principles. We have our own way of doing stuff.

We Africans have our heritage and we must be proud if it! We are tied into closely knitted family units. We love to celebrate together as communities. We also mourn together. Economic factors should not be the reason why we would not do what we are supposed to do, especially when we can.

My point is: We must not copy everything we see. We must not be like them!

so the African way is to throw a large (and expensive) wedding only to be bankrupt much later undecided undecided

AFRICANS must be the smartest people (based on this logic)

A man can have a say on his wedding. Let me share a true life story that happened years ago in IMO state. A guy named Kelvin had planned his wedding with Chioma. On the day of his traditional wedding, his in-laws were demanding for more money after he had spent N1m. It got to a point that he got angry, left the scene of the wedding, switched off his phone for days. His in-laws tried to reach and eventually begged him to marry Chioma but Kelvin stood his ground and decided to call off the wedding. His family pleaded with him but he refused to marry. He later got married to a white lady in Poland and they are blessed with 3 kids.

The blame should be on the couple not in-laws. If couple can stand their ground on having small wedding, the families of the bride or groom will obliged. But when they are swayed by what their parents feel or need it becomes a problem. I blame ladies most times for putting men in stress to get married. They make men to perform two weddings whereas in developed countries it is just one.They are good at copying the whites but they wouldn't copy well



You cannot blame the ladies and leave the man out. Both are meant to be in agreement.

And the couple cannot be blamed alone. Some tribes make it so difficult when parents want to take over. At least we read here where someone was complaining about his FIL being rigid about the church to use.

A friend of mine said she was planning for 200 but her MIL said that is her own crowd. That she should make it 450. Family makes things complicated sometimes.

We should stop blaming tradition abeg when in reality, the truth of the matter is that the couple most often than not are the architect of their own problem ; living a fake life, creating false impressions and going for a big societal wedding.

No one will kill you or stop you from having a small modest wedding ceremony. If you can comfortably afford 20M wedding,go for it. If your pocket says 50K, be bold and go for it too. Don't live to impress people who frankly no matter how.much you spend or hard you try, you never can genuinely impress. Mouth must talk.

Stop misquoting me intentionally. Do as you like. By “invite your relatives to celebrate with you”, I did not mean “spend a fortune”. And did I ever mention what or how many weedings you need to have? Osho-free 5 naira husbands everywhere! Hewh! undecided
