Bride's family returns dowry to would be husband
An interesting incident took place in New Karu town of Karu LGA, Nasarawa State, where the Family of Late. Esu Bulus Chetubo of New Karu retúrned the Bride Price of their daughter, Na'omi.
The bride price was earlier charged at N100,000, but on reaching the agreement, to the point where the marriage list was to be submitted, the bride's family surprisingly took just N1,000 and returned N99,000 to the groom, Mr. Amos Philemon, who is from the family of Philemon Dara of Bwari, Abuja.
According to the bride's family, the idea behind retûrning the money is to demonstrate the mindset that their daughter cannot be sold, as such, the money had to be returned, with only a token received as dowry to fulfill the culture of marriage.
