I now understand why my Ibo friends are too happy when they have female children. EGO don come house!!!!! Please I'm appealing to elders to review this list and allow our sisters to go to their husband's house quickly. I believe that no father or mother in this age will want his / her daiughter to"dale mosu"! |

this is a calabar/ ibibio list. it is very real. my list had some of these elements even though i'm in the states!! it is our culture. my dad's LG usually charges on everything while the bride price itself is $10. so that if anything happens, ten dollars is the only thing refundable. smart!!! |

I didn't see anything in that long list, NOTHING except a long empty list. Your friend fainted because of the bag of rice, salt or the 10Naira or just the long list of nothing. you must be birds of same feather. You said your friend has been married for 3yrs, why then is he receiving the list, LIAR or maybe that's why he hat 2kids before receiving the list. Some people just live their lives not knowing how tribalistic they really are. Some of the worst tribalists in that country, whether they're your corrupt politicians at Abuja or just playing Omosexy are the ones who don't think they're tribalist. The next time you post your divisive trade, be a little more balance |

Like others pointed out, that list belongs to Ibibio/Efik. Im from there and i can tell you some families do write all that. It doesnt necessarily mean that the groom must give everything witten down. Some wicked families use the list to chase away prospective husbands. But it depends on the family. My family list is very moderate, a salary earner can easily afford it. That list up there is scary |

Vivaladiva, shu t up.If you can't say anything good about ones culture, just shu t up your mouth, you're far from being intelligent. That list's not of the Ibos in the first place and even if it is, its our culture. Stay in Europe, marry them and practice their culture if they have any. Your behavior stinks and ethnocentric and that's not civilization, neither are you civilised. Shu t up, you have a loose mouth and annoying one. you've become a hybrid, neither an African or European, what are you? Our culture is just what it is, our culture, get use to it. Some of the things you see in that list are ceremonial, don't knock it because you don't understand it or just playing stu pid or ignorant. Throw up if you want to but get this in your stu pid fish scull. ITS OUR CULTURE, YES OUR CULTURE. |

Re: Igbo Traditional Wedding List by bashr4: 1:16am On Mar 07, 2011 |
this is just a long list of nothing ,besides your not expected to buy them yourself you can give the cash equivalent to someone in her family to do the buying , less than 100,000 naira can buy alll these things ,if you cant afford the amount then you can afford to take care of a woman and her children either. |
