you cannot even refute any of the claims. The bible accepts dowry, most traditions require dowry, you can ask anywhere in the world.

You are either dumb, delusional or both if you actually believe the jargons you wrote...a daughter is a property and an investment jist like a son is.

In India, women pay dowry to the groom's family, so, if you want someone to pay for you, go to India.

Na true d man dey yan jare


If i fit change my mind marry 9ja gal

If u r not a virgin

Babe forget it


I won't pay for ur brideprice



D rate wey gals dey Bleep self brideprice nor suppose dey again

Make we scrap dis shiiit comot

gloria34:
it is not by force to marry, they nor put gun 4 ur head. I dont support costly bride price but we have culture, if u cant abide abeg find white girl marry

safarigirl:
if you have been following prostitutes that are worthless, that is your business.

It is the person that wants to marry that knows the worth of the woman he's marrying, and once again, people are marrying these women, so they are worth something. I don't know how you can brand milliond of women hos when you don't even know them.

Are the females in your family hos? Why would you refer to people's daughters as hos? You are a very disrespectful being and I hope you end up with the kind of woman you deserve.

bughead:
Why pay for something that will cause you trouble in the future


If peradventure I'm marrying those baboons called naija women, I won't pay more than 1k as her bride price! If them don't agree let her father marry her!


This days that women are piece of shiit

safarigirl:
a whole rib was removed from Adam...that was the price he had to pay. You cannot get a woman for free, even God did not give Eve to Adam for free, do you know the worth of a rib?

Stop being silly and asking about money when the first man was created.

Moses had to work 7 years to marry his wife, why didn't her father dash her to him for free? Do you know the money equivalent of seven years of service to a man?

You cannot claim to love somebody if you expect her people to just give her to you like that. Even the Bible recognizes dowry, if you don't want to pay it, stop whining about it.

You are not the only man in this world, find what you can afford and leave the people that know what they want

obryneblaque:

They pay with their labour. Moreover, those woman are of good dignity and they valuable. So they worth something paying for, unlike some holes wey come repent to be a sister

gloria34:
the way guys like u reason surprise me. marriage is not 4 every1, u call naija girls baboons yet I still nurse d tot of marrying 1?

I'm nobody's property or investment. African stupidity.

Sometimes it's not about being broke or tight fisted that makes one utter words like that but when you look at it explicitly, you begin to ask yourself 'why should I pay for what might cause me troubles and problems in the future (speaking about what our marriage these years have suddenly turned to. You see the headlines)? '
Who came up with this concept and what was the motive behind it?
Should it be used as a yardstick to exploit hustling and struggling men from their hard earned money? Thereby telling yourself 'If he doesn't pay someone else will come and pay', Is your daughter a product in the market?
But then let's look at it this way, every expensive and valuable item was bought with a price. What matters now is, will you be keeping that white and black hunch back tv of 1999 till the 2017 plasma tv year?
Know when to release your daughter and not make price an issue so she won't be dragging the last meat in the pot with you at 40years of age.

bughead:
hey girl! What in the word of "IF" you don't understand in that statement

Me nurse the thought of marrying your useless species? not in a life time.


Have a nice day and don't bother quoting me!

Macgreat:


Sir Lugard, I agree with you completely. I will not pay any too.

Is a big scam, they got it from slavery. Africans selling their daughters to slavery since 1680.


Mchewwww!

gloria34:
u made sense with d post. it shouldn't b used to exploit but u have to pay something. I've witnessed a case of a lady over 30yrs, her parents made everything easy 4 d guy but did not just give her to him. he had to do something. even d parent of some young girls contribute to their daughters marriage ceremony. it depend greatly on d parents so d issue should be 4 parents to reduce their prices not removing bride price

gloria34:
obviously u dont understand d 'if' word.

Maezara:
He wants to marry her for his own reasons---and her parents have no say in the matter. It's up to the woman to decide who she wants to spend the rest of her life with, and their permission isn't necessary, since she's an adult, and THEY DON'T OWN HER.

She's not their property.

omaar12:
If He Is Not Comfortable With It, There Is A Lot Of White Ladies In Europe And America, He Should Go Back To His Continent And Get Married. African Men Are Not Complaining, Must Me Substitute All Our Culture And Norms Just To Please U Guy.
He Is Even Saying We Should Be Happy That He Is Even Getting Married To Our Ladies Wtf. These Kind Of Guys Are Those Kind That The In Laws Cannot Ask For Help When They Are In Dier Need Least He Calls Them A Scammer.

Ugoeze2016:
Mr. whiteman welcome to modern slavery. You wonder why most Igbo men marry late, saving up for bride price, non sense

Very common in Igbo land, specially Imo state.

somegirl1:
Don't be silly, that's not a white man.

Is it by force for Africans to die in the Sahara desert, be slaves in Libya, die in the Mediterranean Sea trying to reach Europe and be underemployed second class citizens in their cold countries
Please show some sense when you type.
Thanks.

Who told you African men are not complaining?

bamirotola:
I know Nigerians , especially Edo nd IBO's , they excalated d bride price cos he's white... He must have been told abt paying but got more than what he bargained ... Dear IBO parents , don't use your daughter to extort your in-law, that's why their ladies keeps running to Yoruba guys despite tagging dem Yoruba demon, cos we don't care abt d price ...lool nd IBO guys running after Yoruba ladies...

Statistics shows that by 2020, there will be more single IBO ladies than other tribe , you can google..
