Nigerian actor, Uche Maduagwu who has subtly become a blogger of a sort, has revealed that his colleagues, Genevieve Nnaji and Rita Dominic refused to accept ‘demonic bride price’- which explains why they are still single.
In Uche Maduagwu’s voice, the pair would have married fifteen ago years but the fact that traditional marriages are fraught with a a lot of weird practices in Nigeria, they opted out.
“#Rita Dominic and #GenevieveNnaji would have gotten married 15 years ago if they accepted demonic bride price.
These two legends and colleagues of mine in #Nollywood believe women are not commodities to be bought and sold through the disgusting #bride price #marital slavery.
Rita Dominic and Genevieve Nnaji will unanimously tell you ?” widows in some part of Nigeria are still being forced in the name of disgusting culture and demonic tradition to drinking their husband’s corpse water to prove they didn’t kill them, young girls still have their genitals mutilated and women are still treated like spare parts to be bought and sold in the name of bride price” why? ?♀️When it comes to cultural cost, it seems Nigerian women always pay the psychological and social price.
