    The Aro People in Abia state Nigeria proves themselves as a kingdom whose cultural standards are of great value and regard. A typical Aro girl is said to be very industrious and hard-working. The average person is assumed to be Knowledgeable and hates being less busy in as much as they are hard – working.

    The Aro ladies are one of the most beautiful ladies in the Igbo tribe. Therefore, a lot is expected of any man seeks to take one as a bride.

    The Aro lady being well-trained, conscientious, beautiful as well as cooperative. These are the reasons  that contributes to why their bride price is bit expensive if not the highest in Nigeria.

    The giving out of bride price list to a groom or grooms family, has been in existence for a decade now. This practice is possibly a direct message to a potential boyfriend or admirer of a lady who seeks to take an Aro Lady for marriage.

      Except i am wrong, I did not see the bride price which is the real determinant of the cost put on the bride's head. I was told it is N25.25k. Is this right?
