Man says N1.4m is enough to get married in Nigeria, gives breakdown

A young man named Yaya Abba claims that a conventional wedding ceremony in Nigeria can be held comfortably for N1.4 million.

He announced this on the microblogging site Twitter (X), while detailing how any conventional person wanting to marry may use the money.

He said that N200,000 would be spent on dowry (bride price). He went on to say that the couple may save N500,000 on housing rent.

Yaya added that the budget for Lefe will be N700,000. Kayan Lefe is a Hausa marriage tradition where the groom buys expensive gifts for his bride.

He wrote; “Dowry = 200k

House Rent = 500k

Lefe = 700k

Total = 1.4 million

Unless you’re trying to show off, N1.4 million naira is enough to get you married as an average Nigerian.”
