A Nigerian man has revealed how his friend’s intended marriage failed after she and her fiancé couldn’t agree on how much to contribute to their wedding costs.

The woman, who was 35 at the time, had been getting ready to marry a man who was prepared to settle down with her, according to the man, who went by @MrOlibaba on X, formerly Twitter.

He claimed that before they started preparing for the conventional marriage, the pair had already become engaged and had been introduced to their family.

The man said that when his friend later told him that the wedding had been cancelled, he was taken aback.

“I had a friend who was 35 at the time. She was dating a man who was ready to marry her.

“The engagement had been done, the introduction had taken place, and they were already preparing for the traditional marriage.

“A few weeks later, she told me they had called off the marriage. I was shocked and asked what happened,” he wrote.

He disclosed that the argument began when the prospective groom kept asking his fiancée how much money she would be contributing to the wedding.

The man wanted to know how much his fiancée was willing to invest so they could jointly plan the wedding expenses, according to @MrOlibaba.

“She told me the man kept asking what her contribution would be towards the wedding. Like he wanted to know how much she was willing to bring so they could plan the wedding together,” he stated.

But according to reports, the woman informed her pal that she would not be willing to pay for the wedding.

“The lady said she wasn’t willing to contribute financially to the wedding. Her position was that the man should handle the wedding expenses himself. Perhaps she could cover some expense and not him making it a mandatory,” he wrote.

The X user claimed that the argument persisted until the prospective groom made the decision to call it quits.

“The back and forth and disagreement were a lot, the man eventually called off the marriage,” he stated.

He added that the initial drinks presented during the family introduction were returned, marking the end of the relationship.

“The initial drink they brought for introduction was returned. That was the end of the relationship,” he wrote.

Three years after the failed marriage, the man said he learnt that his former friend’s fiancé had married another woman.

“Three years later, I heard the guy got married to another woman,” he stated.

He added that his friend remained unmarried at the time of his post.

“Unfortunately the lady who is my friend is still single today,” he wrote.
