Wicknell Chivayo plans to pay $125,000 upfront as bride price for his future wife, Lucy "Lulu" Muteke. A video shows his middleman talking with her family about marriage arrangements. Chivayo wants everything settled quickly rather than following lengthy traditional steps. He sent his representative $50,000 cash plus another $75,000 waiting in his car.
His messenger told Lulu's parents that Chivayo truly loves their daughter and hopes they respect his time. He asked them to simply calculate their total price instead of charging separate small fees for different parts of the ceremony. Chivayo feels frustrated by the idea of paying hundreds for speaking rights or thousands for beard-touching privileges according to tradition. He prefers straightforward business.
Beyond cash, Chivayo promised five additional cattle on top of whatever number her father requested. He wants to give her dad a special purebred bull worth around $8,000-$9,000. This valuable animal should help expand the family's existing herd of cattle. The total offering demonstrates his serious commitment to Lulu.
The businessman told his representative that financial matters should be simple because he has plenty of money. He instructed the messenger to explain that he wants their daughter and hopes they'll make the process easy. Chivayo believes the entire lobola discussion could finish within thirty minutes if everyone cooperates. He emphasized that he faces many challenges in life, but money definitely isn't one of them.
