The following week they come back to tell me that someone paid their bride price and they are now married . When asked if they were not aware the man was coming to pay their bride price before asking me for rent money , the usual excuse is that the man was talking about it but did not effect it and suddenly called to set a date for bride price .
In the future any woman asking me to pay her rent must provide the landlord’s account and if I am inclined to help , I will pay the landlord directly and collect a copy of the house key for myself and put some of my suitcases there
If someone suddenly pays your bride price he can come and share your new apartment with me and you . I am no longer a mumu — Francis Van-Lare
