It's actually the list; same thing nearly happened on my wedding day, if not for my Dad's intervention. I have actually bought those things I could afford but they were nearly putting up a fight, that it's not complete Just exactly how they did on the introduction day. The church offering to help is even the most embarrassing of it all. In-laws must not be greedy, it's a marriage and not that you selling off your daughter

You have a point, this was how a friend paid N330k plus for palm wine, the girl’s family insisted no palm wine no marriage. Marrying into poverty is bad.

He wanted to handle the marriage list without the help of the church to avoid future embarrassment but he consider the list too expensive for him.

Only the God's can answer the question.

GetSenseNow:

The post says the church volunteered to sponsor the entire marriage list. Also, marriage lists are always negotiable.

Na the man Sabu why he scamp

and you will be comfortable as a man to allow a group of people pay your duties as a man.

he probably wouldn't say what happened in order to save the lady's face.
