My Experience At A Traditional Marriage Ceremony
Today, a friend of mine invited me to the traditional marriage ceremony of his brother in-law.
My Experience At A Traditional Marriage Ceremony
After travelling for over 2hours via my keke, so we finally got to our destination.
After exchanging pleasantries, kola nuts and other traditional rites were done,then it was left for the main dowry which was #2000.
It was then the bigger problem came because the groom’s family didn’t come with cash.
They insisted on doing transfer but the bride’s family insisted on it, saying it must be paid with cash.
Omoh, the whole thing became funny.
The bride’s elder brother kept insisting on it until a POS attendant was invited into the situation.
The dowry’s money was later withdrawn and paid in cash.
Now, my question is, is it right to pay bride price via transfer considering the new currency policy that’s affecting everyone at this moment?
Or the groom’s family could have withdrawn the money and kept it until the D-day while it was crystal clear it could have expired due to the deadline of the naira swap?
