After receiving the bride price list from his future in-laws, a man looking to settle down has reportedly canceled his marriage plans.

He had gone to perform the introductory rites and had been handed a bride price list of products worth nearly 2.5 million naira.

The man decided to disappear after seeing the outrageous list, as he never returned and neither his girlfriend nor her family have seen him since that day.

The story was shared on social media by Twitter user @TheTawah_, who is also a friend of the affected man.

He shared;

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

@PetersEdidiong; 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.
