High cost of marriage, bride price preventing our women from getting married – Imo Lawmaker

Kennedy Ibeh
The member representing Obowo State Constituency in Imo State House of Assembly, Kennedy Ibeh, has sponsored a bill to regulate the outrageous cost of customary marriages in Imo State.
Ibeh, while presenting the bill for the second reading on Wednesday during plenary, said that the practice predominant in Igboland, had caused so many of the young ladies to remain single.
According to him, “a suitor coming to pay for a lady’s dowry may find it tasking to settle for the English wedding which again demands for more expenses.
“Part of the prayers of this bill is that once a suitor pays and completes the bride price of a lady, a clearance certificate should be issued to the groom by the father of the bride, who will present same to the traditional ruler of the community for the final issuance of Customary Marriage Certificate (CMC) at the cost not exceeding N1000.
