A matchmaker on X, @dearolaa, shared the story of the man who is a member of her platform.
According to her, the bride price list pained the man because he had plans to take the lady abroad.
The post partly read:
“Why would anyone ask for all these just to marry a woman? Won’t the man end up treating her like he likes? You basically sold your child. It’s very ridiculous and I hope women learn from this.
“This man has plans of taking her abroad and even paying her school fees abroad. Can’t you even think of that bigger picture? Now you have lost a good man cos of greed.”

Reactions as man gets bride price list of N3.5 million
@Arakunrin MFR said:
“After looking through the list, my first thought is, what tribe is the woman from? A typical Yoruba family would not make such a high-level request, or else they would have viewed the man as a chance to defraud him of money in exchange for a marriage.”

“Bride price twice??? That’s so unreasonable! He should send some people there and they can negotiate. He should also talk to his babe to talk to her family too.”
