To marry women from Mbaise can drain someone's life savings, they are the most expensive in terms of bride price. 4 Likes |

Abolish what? That's how we are almost calling everything we inherited from our forefathers useless and stupid just because we think the white mans way is better. Our parents that paid it did they die? I don't know about other tribes, but my people say, " anaghi alucha nwanyi alucha". Every true son of the soil knows that the bride price is always negotiable and you are not even expected to do everything on the list a pastor went to marry an Mbaise girl. The brides dad and kinsmen received the bride price after it has been paid and give his blessings to the union. Immediately after, he pulled out #100 naira only, put it his pocket and gave the rest back to his inlaws. During the weeding, he gave the young man a pathfinder. Bride price does not mean buying the woman, it is a cultural symbolism that shows that the man has the wherewithal to take care of another mans daughter 14 Likes |

They can even give u one billion dollars bill and u may end up spending less than 100k.it is fun.people seat to bargain for each of the items and I never heard that money stopped any one from marrying an Mbaise woman.It is like Insurance. When insurance company replaces accidental car the owner will never reference the company rather boast with such gesture 2 Likes |

what most Nigerians fail to realize is that you can take the same mbaise girl to the registry and marry her legally without the silly tradition. The parents will beg the both of you to do the needful at a very reasonable price after their 4th Omugwo visit. 11 Likes 1 Share |

safarigirl:You're on point but then it is surprising you didn't mention a thing about the said marriage list. Bride price in my place is N75 and the totality of a marriage list does not exceed N150k, save for cases the groom or his family intends to announce themselves. Asking a potential groom to provide certain items worth 800k ten years ago or now is nothing but sheer greed and not necessarily bent on tradition. Our values and cultures must by all means be preserved but there is a need to abolish some practices because they are detrimental to people, one of them is the female circumcision. And the excuse or reason for this? Just so a lady does not get excited over thoughts of sex and become loose afterwards. Female circumcision has been responsible for the frigidity of some women folks because their clits were severed. For the ones unlucky ones, they are damned by being rendered useless from ever becoming a woman because 'something went wrong'. That I believe it is high time I settled does it mean one useless family would think it is the perfect opportunity to cash in on their daughter. 1 Like |

I think it's Igbo (too much love of money) folks that bother too much on the amount and price. They sell their daughters for a price. ![]() ![]() Bride Price is certainly part of the Yoruba culture with very little emphasis on the cash money or monetary value of the 'gifts' (Dowry). That's why it's regarded to as 'Gifts' NOT compulsory or inconveniencing to the groom's family. It's more of a form of courtesy and respect from the husband's family shown to the bride's family. The cash money is usually a very small amount like N2K or so. As much as less value is placed on the financial aspect, very high traditional and customary values are placed on the actual money (regardless of the amount) and gifts. In the Yoruba-land, the bride's family would normally give the cash money (bride-price) back to the groom's family by stating... "We're not selling you our daughter as, her worth is too invaluable monetarily". 2 Likes 2 Shares |

It shouldn’t be abolished. It should be reasonable. I personally will refuse for my son to marry from such a demanding family. It says a lot of bad things about a family that will put unnecessary financial burden on a young couple. 5 Likes |

Sanchez01:na the daughter allow then siphon the money. The funny thing is that it is not even the family eating this money, it is all those UmuNna and Umu Ada people that will sit down and create list to favour them, na them dey chop the money pass. I have never heard anyone complain of the marriage list from my village, these other people from Imo state must sort themselves out because contrary to this shoddy view they give, not all Igbo people give inflated lists. 2 Likes |

If not for greedy family/parents, all what the 800k bought should have been what the lady would take to her new home. From clothes to mortar, parents should never keep anything. |

Zykod: This is a preposterous and scandalously shortsighted viewpoint. I am embarrassed on your behalf. It's shocking how people can be so close minded and myopic. So you do not know many men who could afford to pay the most exorbitant bride price and even splurged on the most lavish weddings yesteryear who are now dirt poor today....and simply lack the wherewithal to provide for their families? Or you do not know many men who could not afford even the cheapest of wedding ceremonies back in the day when they managed to marry, but are filthy rich today? It's disgusting how some of you clueless souls view life stations and circumstances in present absolute terms. Quite shocking. 16 Likes 1 Share |
