A young Nigerian Netizen with the Facebook name Maryam Shetty has revealed how a wedding was called off over a ridiculously classist reason.
Family of the bride called off the wedding after finding out where their prospective in-laws resides.
The family of the lady, her parents precisely said they wouldn’t allow their daughter to go and suffer as where the man lives is so low class based on their high standards.
After embarrassing the man with their classism, they offered to give him a new house but out of pride he turned down their offer so the marriage couldn’t come on.
“We are truly facing an epidemic especially in Northern Nigeria, often perpetuated by parents; classism. Recently, a wedding was called off based on the fact that the bride’s family felt the house she was going to stay in doesn’t fit her status and class. This was a decent new terrace house? They said they wouldn’t want their daughter to go suffer as she grew up in wealth!!!
The said husband to be is a decent, well educated person with a good job and also from an upper class family too; his parents said that’s all they could afford to house her as the house was gifted to him by his father.
The bride’s parents even offered to get a better house that suited her status. However, the husband and his parents stood firm. Consequently, wedding was called off. She went ahead to marry some socialite who practically does nothing. She basically missed out on a great person. Sadly, there are too many of such stories.Weddings are cancelled due to some trivialities and misplaced priorities.
Ironically, most of these parents had humble beginnings devoid of the luxuries they place so much importance on. They never allow their kids to navigate life on their own. Weddings and marriages have become like some competition. It’s mostly a lavish display of wealth, power, materialism, outshining of others etc; it’s truly no wonder marriages last a second.”
