The second phase of an Igbo wedding is the Umunna rites which is a meeting between the groom’s family and the bride’s extended family.
This meeting is important because the groom’s people have to restate their interest in marrying from the bride-to-be family, in the presence of her Umunna (direct and extended family, with family elders).
Once consent has been secured, dates for the traditional wedding will be set and the bride price list will be sent out.
The groom takes a few gifts such as kola nuts, palm wine, beer, soft drinks, tobacco, snuff, and a goat which will be shared between the groom and bride’s family.
Recall that Davido had vowed to marry Chioma next year.
Since the death of their son, Davido and Chioma have withdrawn from the spotlight and have been keeping a very low profile.
While Davido made his first return to Instagram, Chioma has remained inactive on Instagram.
The couple have been spending more time with family. This is to ease their grieve and to keep them in check from self-harm.
