Part-payment means the whole dowry was a national budget.


Be ready to be the sponsor of that family from start to finish after the marriage.


You are not just marrying into a hungry family, you are marrying into a family that will be so entitled that even the daughter you are marrying will vilify you when you fail to turn up.


They are coming for the money, with marriage as a cover.

Sounds some how.., Instead of Part Payment, why not reduce give a reasonable amount, and let him clear up the dowry at once.
People of this world , give respect to this ancient dowry traditional rite for marriage.

How much is the dowry?

Let's start from there.

Because I know dowry isn't that expensive, in many occasions, when you pay the dowry, your in-laws will even from there remove something and give you people for transport fare and also tell you people that they are not selling their daughter.

Again, tell us where the prospective in-laws are from?

We just want to check something.

Na wa, some of you are just difficult people. Probably your woman has gone to plead on his behalf and try to make her family see reasons why they should make things easy for your friend and you're here calling it desperation. It's well. You that they're giving option of part payment actually calls for introspection because if you had much they won't be putting that option on the table in the first place. Peace and light tho.

I can bet your friend is married from SE.

What is amusing is that the same yam legged babe has been mounted by 1,000,000 guys.

Yet they gave your mumu friend a bride price lists so long the guy had to make a deposit.

Yet their daughter is probably a spermbank with ALL deposits and no withdrawals grin tongue

Praise Jesus! grin

My worry, why would they be too desperate to let their daughter go on down-payment.?
Do you think he should proceed with the idea?

This is tinubulisation economy, a down payment would guarantee that the responsibility of the girl is shifting from the parents to the suitor. Let the man go Bleep at will and allow the poor parents of the girl breathe

Chai..





There's a clear difference between Dowry and Bride Price.


I know you're referring to Bride Price.


Dowry is what her family gifts her to take to her husband's house.

The desperation and pressure parents are mounting on their girls child for marriage will soon lead them to early grave..
It is the right time society should start normalizing women marrying in their thirties ,, a lot of men in their 30s cant even feed themselves talk more of those in their twenties,, Men in their 40s are already married,, so who will marry all this girls littered around? is it unemployed youths earning below 50k?
O. p dont pay a dime until their desperation is clip off,, their daughter is not a commodity and shouldn't be.
ur write up is good but not bad if he makes down-payment..u no economically tins are not too good

If you're wise, you wouldn't be asking such stu pid question.

If the country is good and the basic things are working fine for that family and maybe the OP's friend, will they even think it twice to take such step?

Like the saying goes "Desperate times call for desperate measures"

A little correction bro.

It is the bride's family that pays the dowry in the form of money, gifts, or properties to the groom, not the other way around.

Regarding your question, men have been doing 'a little something on her head' since the time of Adam. Her family is made up of good people; many will accept it if you offer to make a partial/down payment for your wife and complete the payment later. However, for them to suggest it means they are good people.

Note: My choice of words is intentional because marriage in some places is a business transaction in disguise.
