I think all these depends more on the strenght and exposure of the family than on tradition.. Some very hungry people who see the marriage of their daughters as an avenue to "open office" on the man will do everything to edit and multiply that list so that they can gain from it. As far as I can remember all my married sisters had at least 70% of the wedding expense handled by my dad. I remember growing up i used to think its the norm until i started attending other weddings and started seeing very funny things 1 Like |

Ladyhippolyta88:Exactly. Or they scrap that nonsense bride price. 2 Likes |
Re: ........... by Nobody: 3:38pm On Apr 15, 2020 |
Easybela:Half truths, I see. The list comes before d bride price and not d oda way round. The list is a fulfilment of what it takes customarily to marry a lady from a place based on family and it is usually fulfilled b4 d bride price is negotiated. In fact it is always checked to confirm if it is complete according to their tradition. If ur bride price has been settled as u claim, hanty this is not ur list but items requested for hosting guests at reception. Show is what it took to pay ur dowry. Abi ur husband for no provide food and drinks for reception, bag of rice, palmy, beer na reception things hence there is no truth in it claims. NB: I am not for exhorbitant lists, I married an ibo lady, and I think it's high time they do away with greedy exploitative lists in d name of marriage. |

Its k by my family, other families can do their wish,there is no rule for marriage list as long as my kinsmen are concerned,if you like,give your daughter away for free,their only concern is that, on that day,you must give them their usual food and drinks(they recently included that in their constitution). Anyway, good to meet you here,am from Akpugo,you? Phenomenal16: |

Please is this the same for all Nkanu West women, because I have a babe from Akegbe in Nkanu West, I intended marrying, though am not financially ready, but I have made up my mind on her, also I don't mind making use with the little I have. Clarify me please. |

I didn't see the list but truth is list is collected which contains things to bring b4 bride price and this is the most essential. any other thing on the list after bride price is OYO this is because remaining things on the list after this is for traditional marriage and traditional marriage is not compulsory.but your average igbo girl must drag you down that lane. it wouldn't take more than 200k t fullfil rites b4 bride price in Enugu sometimes less if you negotiate. wahala enters when you won do loud adding traditional marriage infact the day of dowry payment drinks will be given to bride to give to husband so your additional traditional marriage is your problem. list comprises mostly things for :mother,father,youth,maidens and drinks for kindred including stuff and co .The bride price might go as high as 30k but the father takes like 1k and give you back the rest telling you the child is not for sale. that way if you Bleep up they will come and take back their daughter and give you back your 1k lol |

Zikyke: carry your people to go and collect list. go home and study it,tgeir are few things you must do b4 you can pay dowry .once dowry is paid you are married. you can chose to do traditional marriage celebration when you fill more boyant/want celebration that's if you have rapport with your babe. if you have bw 150-200 go there,make sure you are always stepping with an elder wey sabi 1 Like |

To be sincere their Bride price is always a killer very long and expensive to be Frank I can't date them not to talk of marriage cause in the process of dating them you can fall in love easily and it's very dangerous cause aside from bride price issue both IBol men and women are very promiscuous mostly women |
