Eastern brides are said to be the most
expensive brides in Nigeria, in terms of what
is reportedly demanded of the potential groom
in the ‘list’
In terms of what it takes to take a bride from any
of the eastern states in Nigeria, it is said to not be
a walk in the park. The Igbo tribe take pride in
their daughters and don’t hesitate to show any
potential suitor how ‘highly rated’ she is.
The Igbo bride’s traditional wedding list is
probably one of the most discussed topics
whenever a man indicates interest in taking an
Igbo wife.
A groom was reportedly asked to buy the
following items in the picture below, for him to be
able to take a wife from the Afikpo area of Ebonyi
state:
“it is called Nvunvu, a traditional marriage rite
performed by an intended groom, mostly done
by the Afikpo people in Ebonyi State”.
The Igbos also perform a tradition called ‘idu uno‘
where a bride is sent forth from her parents’
house to her new home. She is given lots of gifts
consisting mostly of items she’ll need to make her
home.
She gets items like refrigerator, brooms, mortar/
pestle, gas cooker, pots and pans e.t.c, especially
if her family can afford it.
Here is a picture of a bride with her ‘idu uno’ gifts:
What do you think?

If the lady's worth it and he has the means to buy them, why not?

I no see doctor or pilot for the end of that list. That one go be N999,000.
