According to the post, the groom-to-be requested his fiancée to cover 40% of the expenses, but she declined, insisting that it was solely the man’s responsibility to fund the wedding.
The post read:
“A friend of mine ended a 3-year relationship because his fiancée wanted them to spend ₦8 million on their wedding.”
“He asked her to contribute 40% of the cost, and she got angry, saying he isn’t man enough to handle the expenses. So, he ended things with her. I love it.😁”

@odogwu_ogidi: “The best decision. Let her look for another man to foot the 8m wedding.”
@coco_BUTTERNFT: “I’M a gold digger but even that’s too much for any event. A small outdoor event with close friend and close relation not more than 20 people is my dream wedding. I wanna get married in a white lacy night gown and be done with it. Any man who wants it big will marry someone else.”
@Paulechidi: “He is not man enough, she and her family could not raise ordinary 40% of the money for THEIR marriage, such a SHAME.”
@Brykas_official: “I love it for him as well. You can’t have only 20k in your account as a woman and you’re dreaming of getting married and having an elaborate wedding as well. When you put in your hard earned money, you’ll think twice before doing anything that’ll scatter that marriage.”
