Controversial On-Air Personality, Daddy Freeze has opined that majority of Nigerian women will not qualify if bride price should be paid only for virgins.
Recall that, Nigerian lawyer and author, Reno Omokri in one of his daily nuggets stated that bride price should only be paid for virgins.
The controversial critic and author who made the statement via Twitter, said the Bible contains scriptural evidence to back up his assertion.
Quoting a verse in Exodus, Omokri said biblically bride price should only be paid for women who are to be married as virgins.
Meanwhile, Daddy Freeze who is in full support of Reno’s school of thought shared his regret as he claims that majority of Nigerian women will not qualified if virginity is a criteria for bride price.
In his words,
“Reno Omokri is right o! And what’s worse, if a woman is given as a virgin and she is found out not to be, she MUST be stoned to death in front of her father’s house for being promiscuous in her fathers house.
If this should be implemented, 85% of our women won’t qualify for bride price.
And for those saying this is the Old Testament, can they please show us any instance in the New Testament where the bride price of a non virgin was paid?🙄
◄ Deuteronomy 22 ►
New Living Translation
[13] “Suppose a man marries a woman, but after sleeping with her, he turns against her [14] and publicly accuses her of shameful conduct, saying, ‘When I married this woman, I discovered she was not a virgin.’
[15] Then the woman’s father and mother must bring the proof of her virginity to the elders as they hold court at the town gate. [16] Her father must say to them, ‘I gave my daughter to this man to be his wife, and now he has turned against her.
[17] He has accused her of shameful conduct, saying, “I discovered that your daughter was not a virgin.” But here is the proof of my daughter’s virginity.’ Then they must spread her bed sheet before the elders.
[18] The elders must then take the man and punish him. [19] They must also fine him 100 pieces of silver, which he must pay to the woman’s father because he publicly accused a virgin of Israel of shameful conduct. The woman will then remain the man’s wife, and he may never divorce her.
[20] “But suppose the man’s accusations are true, and he can show that she was not a virgin. [21] The woman must be taken to the door of her father’s home, and there the men of the town must stone her to death, for she has committed a disgraceful crime in Israel by being promiscuous while living in her parents’ home. In this way, you will purge this evil from among you.”
