An abroad-based man is accused of requesting a refund of the bride price after intentionally going ahead with the traditional wedding just to hurt his partner for ‘forming hard-to-get’.

A cousin of the devastated bride, known as @DrChiemeziem on X, revealed that the man physically assaulted his cousin before ending their relationship.

He recounted how the man fulfilled all the requirements for the traditional marriage and organized an elaborate ceremony. However, it later emerged that he only married her to get intimate because she had initially resisted his advances.

Additionally, he demanded a refund of the bride price he had paid after which he returned to to his home abroad.

In his words;

“There was this abroad guy that came back, did introduction and traditional marriage (with live band, buffet kitchen, canopy and all that) just to chop my hard-to-get cousin. My cousin nearly ran mad that year. Very beautiful girl wey no get wahala o. “After two weeks, he beat her up over a disagreement, told her he only did trad just to fucck her since she was forming hard to get when he was asking her out. Told her people he wasn’t interested in the marriage anymore, that he wanted the bride price back. Left her and traveled.”
