Whatever you do as an African man, no involve Western Govt in your marriage. Your ancestors and forefathers no try am, e no go reach your turn, you come change the status quo. Almost all the governmental institutions in African today are offshoot of Western culture. No say you were not warned. |

Who won't do lavish wedding when there is money, but if you don't have, traditional wedding should be mininum, at least both families can get together, you and your lover should be able to plan in such a way to cut cost, if it is to reduce the number of invitees, court marriage you will do, the same court will still dissolve the marriage with no family members input. |

Samantha124:you people will be hiding behind culture and heritage, when what you people are exhibiting is foolish pride and spending what you don’t have. Most nations and people have passed through a phase of hardship and poverty , but they were able to change their story because they accept the fact and make changes to most of their wasteful practices. But we as a people we just want to caress our pride and keep going wasteful. Culture and tradition kor !!!! |

Emma1Oj: So doing a big wedding is showoff and being materialistic? Your insecurity and Inferiority complex reeks everywhere. Did anybody force you to do big wedding? You can do you small registry wedding thats your business, not everybody will conform to your silly mindset when it comes to wedding okay. You sit in your 2 by 2 thinking those that can afford big weddings will have poverty mindset like you Rest. 1 Like |

White wedding is not biblical. We Africans we will conduct a court wedding, traditional wedding and a white wedding and still go for reception. Very wasteful spending to discourage marriages in Africa. |

Hohaiiiode: I know three girls which got married about 5 years ago all three of them are in so much debt one of them is now in 4.5 million naira for the wedding. The other two are we about 3.2 million naira and do prostitution in Canada to pay back the money which they borrowed for the wedding. Both of them in Canada and now HIV positive |

Chingyyy878: Exactly! If you cannot afford a big wedding then do something small and then when the money comes, you can throw a lavish wedding during your anniversary if you like. Warripikin did the "wedding" of her dreams this year, and it was the talk of the town, infact country even though she has been married for almost a decade. It's unwise to borrow huge sums over a wedding that is gonna happen in a just one day. Moreso in this evul Tinubu era! |

No wonder my uncle sat there and stared at me, then barked out at me with a palpable depth of pain... He instructed me unawares, "if she's just a student, leave her alone, if she has nothing doing to earn a consistent income, don't marry her, if she cannot support(help) you, don't marry her. Na now e clear me for eye. But wait o. Does this take away the expensive traditional wedding brouhaha? The way poor or inconsiderate parents and relatives find creative means to punish men who come to marry their daughters is not traditional at all. It's as if criminals hide behind the mask of tradition to rob. Last I was in a wedding,I couldn't hide my disgust for how a group of youths so called came to disrupt the wedding of a couple simply because they were not given "youth money".. I was like wtf😒 Chingyyy878: 1 Like |

I don't know about your culture, but in my culture our native attires for unmarried guys and ladies are revealing. Even in some of you traditional Nigerian movies, you'd see young men and women wearing revealing clothes, for it's part of their culture. Are you telling me that your ancestors weren't wearing revealing clothes before they got colonized? petrflynt: |

One wey rey that told me she want a classic wedding during our talking stage early this year has been trying to get us back to talking, maybe I fit consider am again. Me wey don drop the akoba of a person like a bad habit. She even have the mind to say she knows her man can't fully fund her type of wedding, I asked her how much she has to support the wedding party, she no even get better money o. The funny thing is none of the pictures or videos of her friends weddings wey she don post come close to being call a classic wedding according to her definition. |

Re: Advice To Young People Who Want To Wed by vickydevoka(m): 5:13pm On Dec 02, 2023 |
Chingyyy878:The problem is the lady not the guys. Omoni know some that spend over 2 million for both traditional and court plus bride list. She cancelled everything bcus the guy refused to do wedding. So don't blame the guys. Especially when a lady I a bit rich. She will be commanding you like you are not human, any small thing she will threaten you with ending the wedding. Now, I realise that lady have to be lacking before she will be loyal, either financially or agr wise. If she's getting older she I'll behave as well, if she's ugle she will behave as well. This gender sabi calculate like primary school children, nothing mature for their head o 1 Like |

Samantha124: I think we should learn to respect each other's culture, but I think his point is that for those that are not financially strong should simply go for a low-key court wedding, later when there's cash you can do your weddings. Most traditional wedding in Nigeria are very expensive, you must be buoyant financially to do it. |
