A man has ignited online discussion after revealing that his coursemate insisted on receiving the full ₦150,000 for wedding aso ebi fabric, even though he had already contributed ₦100,000 as a goodwill gesture despite not attending the ceremony.
He explained that he was added to the coursemate’s aso ebi group where the fabric was priced at ₦150,000. Opting not to buy the outfit, he chose to support the groom financially since he had no plans to be present at the wedding.
After obtaining the groom’s bank details via direct message, he transferred ₦100,000, describing it as his contribution toward the marriage before exiting the aso ebi group.
Groom Requests Full Aso Ebi Payment
The man expressed surprise when the groom later contacted him, insisting that he should pay the complete ₦150,000 because he would not be attending the wedding.
He recounted, “I was added to my coursemate’s aso ebi group for his wedding. The fabric cost was 150k. I messaged him for his account details and sent 100k straight away. I told him that was my contribution to his marriage since I couldn’t attend the ceremony. I left the group immediately afterward.”
