A Nigerian man vents out his frustration on the microblogging platform Twitter and users can't keep cool about it. In an anonymous message shared by the man, he revealed that he recently engaged to his girlfriend, and their wedding is scheduled for September or December of the year. However, the problem now is that he budgeted N6 million naira for the wedding but his girlfriend wants him to spend over N20m for the wedding. Adding to the narration he revealed that, the girlfriend has no money to contribute towards the wedding but she wants an extravagant wedding which he is not ready for.
“l engaged my girl on Feb 14 n nw we're planning for the wedding for Sept/Dec the problem now is that my budget is N6m she is saying it is too small while her budget is abt N17m I do not have a problem with that if she is going to balance it up. She says it is my responsibility or else the wedding Is off. She wants a glamorous wedding like those Bella Naija types. Only the wedding gown is about N820k, she is trying to gaslight me saying she knows I have the capacity I am just being stingy. And I have told her I am not going above my budget cause my 2nd house is still under construction and Business is going smoothly as before. Well, I told her if she doesn't comply or balance it up I am calling off the wedding. Am I overreacting? Imagine me spending close to N20m just to marry. That's my 3 months' income. This is somebody I bought a Corolla for o”.
His narration generated a whole lot of views and opinions from users, a few of which are highlighted below;

Talk to her one more time, if she still doesn't agree let her parents know, and if they are on her side, fucking free here

This one is not wife material. If she was, she won't encourage you to spend 20M on a wedding to please herself and outsiders. A smart woman knows what's important & building a family & planning for the future of your unborn children is more important than spending on a lavish wedding in this economy.
Call the wedding off if she insists & saves yourself from a lifetime of heartache & consequences of dumb decisions that she will most definitely make when you marry.

If your wife-to-be is pushing you to spend 17 Million on just your wedding to her, that means she has no plan for the future and probably feels too entitled.
Marriage is not a time to show people you have a lot of money but a time to tie the knot with the one you love, PLEASE LET HER GO!!!

Bro, all this kind of thing no suppose to be the question. you already know the right thing to do. plus you too, must have been disclosing your worth for her. never declare your income, some properties, etc. Be a Man boss
@OBO master
The only thing I want when you send her away is to collect your Corolla back. She's a clown. That your 6m budget is even too high, mine is 2m
