I am currently seing an Orlu girl and intend proposing to her soonest.I confided this to a friend of mine and he advised me to back off as the traditional marriage rites for imo girls are particularly expensive.I like the girl and would love to go ahead,but will like someone in the house to throw more lights on the issue.

Can someone in the house help me with a budgetary estimate for performing the traditional marriage rites(igba nkwu nwanyi) in Orlu imo state

These guys that ain't ready for marriage.

All the bricklayers, Okada riders etc that got married to women from Orlu performed expensive traditional marriage rites?

It has nothing to do with the town or village. It is about the family.

No idea. But its what the girl should seek help from her dad about. She should let them know your financial situation and then he will see what he can do to help you guys out among his relatives.

Last time I checked it isnt only millionaires that get married in orlu

You're "the lucky man"!!!
What could possibly go wrong

Some people calculate what they can gather and go get the list. Then they start buying stuff like wrapper, boxes etc little this month little next month and that is how they gather and save until the chosen date.

hmm .Bros are you for real

I don't think u are ready yet. So I should not waste my time.

Bros, you cannot get a reasonable answer from nairaland. Honestly, you re not ready to marry. If okada men and bricklayers marry in that place then all your assumptions and your friends talk are blatant nonsense.
