What really is the science behind exchanging human beings for cows in the name of dowry? Dr. King'ori delves into that conversation with Pastor Man Kush and former Kasarani MP Elizabeth Ongoro. #TheWickedEdition
Hon Elizabeth I agree with you... thanks mum. When my elder sis was getting married I was around 25 and believe you me when the in-laws were bargaining for dowary I walked out. I felt it's like I am selling away my sister.....I managed to convince mum behind the curtains that whatever my inlaw will feel like giving will be ok.....and they are happily married..
My friend's father asked for an equivalent of ksh5,000. The man later built them a modern home even before he built his own house. He was the one who would send his in-laws money while his wife Protests
Yes my mum told my hubby she can not sell me,for him to give whats he feels is right for thanks giving,the only thing she wants is to see us happy,why to pay big amount of money and someone daughter is going through hell with you
In Kikuyu we do. It's called ITARA. Simply to know the man's home. And you don't go empty handed. Actually if a wedding is in the offing, ITARA practically takes care of a very large Percentage of food budget.
Dowry is simple buying the gal... that's why in gikuyu you don't have the gal if you didn't meet the specific requirements of how many cow tank honey leso etc kama ni appreciation mtu angekua anapeleka anything
@@evanceotiende8459 I will explain you in full,when children inherit from parents girls get half the boys ,because boys pays the dowry to the girl and the girl receive it,if she wants she can give it to her parents but parents have no rights to take her dowry and it's the girl that mention how much dowry she wants,I hope I tried my best to explain
No, the reason why men are asked for dowry is just to show that you are actually trully interested in the girl. Because parents wa madame wanataka kuona uko serious. It's not even appreciation.
If dowry is Thanksgiving as you state why then wazee are invited to negotiate what to take? Do people sit to negotiate how a person should thank others?..dowry is a manipulation
This discussion is not bringing out the point. Dowry depends with ones tradition. Like in our culture,a man pays dowry in instalments. A girls dowry is an equivalent of what was paid for her mother. If that is not done then the family will face some problems...it has consequences..
Kama baba you are worse than a cow infact you are a goat How can you sell your blood and meat for one kilo of meat because you cannot eat the whole cow alone What of if you yourself was sold for one kilo of meat utalia mimi si ngo,mbe kubaf pastor
