Man Absconds after Fiancee’s Family Bill him N2.5M for Bride Price

Promising suitor reportedly ghosted his in-laws-to-be after the family sent him a bride price list worth a whopping N2.5M.

According to a Twitter user @TheTawah_, his friend had to ghost his fiancee’s family over the bribe price that he considered outrageous.

“They gave my friend bride price list of almost ₦2.5m since last year, they haven’t seen my guy till now,” he wrote.

Most time its bants at least where I’m from (Akwa-Ibom). We say “marriage is a debt that cannot be paid in one day, one is forever indebted” It basically has to do with d grooms family showing respect and regard for them. You might even end up not paying half of their demands.
