A Nigerian man is creating a stir after he turned to social media to ask for donations for his upcoming nuptials.
Set to wed in March 2023, he emailed the Halal Foundation, appealing to generous Nigerians for assistance.
The groom-to-be who is from katsina state lost his parents while he was in secondary school and is unable to finance the wedding by himself.
-ADVERTISEMENT-
In his letter, he featured a list of items needed along with their prices in US dollars.
Most of them are clothing and accessories ranging from $50 to $100, with his house rent amounting to $250.
The letter read in part,
“Request for Marriage Funding Assistance
I, Hassan, am writing to beg for financial support for my upcoming marriage. My parents died when I was in Senior Secondary two, and I am a native of Katsina State, Nigeria, where I had my elementary and secondary education (2). Later, I went to Polytechnic and earned a diploma in Computer Science.
I put my complete mind and confidence on your side, knowing that by God’s grace, you will help me opt out of the crucial circumstance I find myself in with whatever you intend to provide me as my marriage will be done on March 3rd, 2023 by next year by God’s grace.
I would be quite grateful if you could support and assist me in carrying out my marriage without the need for a loan from a bank or making me feel concerned.”
Halal shared the letter on its Twitter page and wrote, “A brother emailed us that he needs your help for his marriage, which is coming soon.”

@eyitayo_akanke – Honestly, if you need to crowd fund a wedding, maybe you shouldn’t get married. Will you have to drop your account details on social media for every other thing like feeding, housing, child care etc
@im_alaminn – Dear Hassan, babu Maraya sai rago. You have fixed a date for wedding you aint financially ready or buoyant. Haba Mallam Hassan, idan jama’a sukayi maka fundingdin auren ka, waye zai ciyar da matan ka? If she put to bed, who, and with what will you take care of them? Haba Hassan.
