Advice ….. His Ex Tricked Him To Pay Her Bride-Price

Wonders they say shall never end.

A Guy dated this girl for 7yrs,starting from senior sec school. During his
service year they had a serious quarrel and broke up. Both families were
involved. ” Cause of quarrel ” , the lady’s famaly accused him of being the
reason while their daughter was not serious in school,he is already through
with school and serving,She dropped out (was doing her HND). This guy
walked away.

2yrs later girl reappeared and pleaded for them to start over again. He
gave in since he still loves her and also got an affirmative from his mum.
His mum loves this babe and wanted her as a Daughter in law..
September last year(like 2months later) the girl visited him,said she got
admission in a nursing school and need like N200,000 for school
fees,accommodation etc. My colleague just came back from abroad and is
loaded,he spits it.

A month later he got a call that the lady’s bride price has been paid. He
calls her and she denies then suddenly out of reach. He call tire. He later
got a lot of calls from his cousins at villa to confirm her traditional and
wedding.
Months later the girl called and said she’s sorry but needed the cash for her
traditional marriage.
The guy wanted to ask for repay but didn’t so as not to go against his
mum’s advice.

Personally i think he should collect his money back. What’s Your take?
