This is everything you need to get to marry a Nigerian girl

This is what it takes to marry a Nigerian girl
I received the dowry list signed by her father
I need to purchase yam, cola nut, alligator pepper, palm oil and even a LIVE GOAT! And not just one yam or pepper - large quantities. The list is 39 items in total.
In this video I will be visiting the bulk food markets to gather everything I need to complete this list before the marriage.
These items are symbolic like the bottle of honey meaning our marriage will forever be sweet, yam as a symbol of fertility and prosperity, and an umbrella signifying my role as a protector for my wife.
It is a lot of things, but it is worth it for Adenike. She is Yoruba but all the tribes practice dowries though with different items and traditions around it.
Thank you to Eunice of @AboutConsumables for helping me with this list. Her page: / aboutconsumables

    Oyinbo man, the woman that went to the market with you is so truthful and honest. She is so reliable. Stick to her for more assistance in the future, because you wouldn't get many hponest Nigerians around you. Be careful. I wish you a happy married life in few weeks time. Drop you IV here for us to grace the big ocassion.

    Requirements differ from each tribe. In my tribe for instance no animal or fish, oil is required in the list. It is more of clothes, drinks and money. No eatable item on the list.

    This was beautiful and enlightening to watch😊 I love how you were actively part of the purchase of all the dowry items, it shows how much you value the bride. The bride list and bride price is not as though the family is selling their daughter but to see how much of the intending groom's commitment to their daughter. Well done Chris and congratulations on your marriage!

    This is Not what it takes to marry a Yoruba girl. It differs from family to family and what money you bring is mostly returned to you that they are not selling thier daughter. Pls let your viewers know whatever you bring is mainly to showcase tradition and not that they are taking thier daughter to you.
