#UnpopularOpinion #410. Sorry for this very long post. The Ankole culture on marriage is soon getting wiped out & replaced by Kiganda culture. The stages in the Ankole culture start from okugamba obugyenyi where you send “kateerarume” or emissary to the family of the girl & inform them that a certain boy is interested in their daughter. It progresses to okuchwerwa ebintu, a ceremony only attended by the father of the girl with his selected men to negotiate the bride price. These are not more than five men. Women don’t attend this & the girl must not be seen by the father inlaw lets he may change his interest. Remember, sons were not responsible for bride price. It’s the father that pays it. After this small & simple ceremony, then the party of the bride goes to the family of the boy to choose their cows in a ceremony called okujuga. This is a serious ceremony. People go with sticks “enkoni” to fight if they are given poor cows. They are even not fed until the cows are accepted. Still the bride is not seen or get involved here. After this ceremony, the father of the groom pays for the enkoni known as eminyaafu(obuswaaki) to heard the cows to the father of the bride. A group of strong men is then sent to the girls home to “eat for their things” okuriir’ebintu). If you are not a good eater, you won’t be selected. A giveaway ceremony is then planned. It’s called okuhingira. This is the real marriage ceremony where the father of the girl hands over his daughter officially to the father of the boy. This is the first time the groom’s people get to see their “wife” officially even when some know her. She walks in at the function once & she’s given away. Her father is then expected to give her things(emihingiro) to start a family. The boy’s side can bring in gifts to the father. This is not mandatory. After this, a wedding day in church or mosque is set. It normally was the following day after kuhingira. After the girl has settled in her husband’s house, she’s not allowed to cook or do any other work. A designated woman mostly the sister of her husband is responsible for cooking for her, giving her water to bathe etc. it’s called orusiika. After a month or two, she will be allowed to cook her first meal; strictly millet(kalo). She does it alone with the help of her brother. The ceremony is called okukora omu mahega. After this, the couple with selected people go to the home of the girl(father inlaw) so that the man can visit her relatives one by one. He must sleep in his father in law’s house for about two days. It’s called okwaruka. Now, things have changed. They have created kukyaala, where people are invited, girls change dresses more than three times dancing when even the bride price hasn’t been negotiated. Every ceremony, the boy is told to fund it. On kuhingira, the grooms side bring in things like the real Kwanjura in Buganda culture. Chairs, crates of sodas, beer, refrigerators, etc. Why? The boy has already paid cows. All this change in culture is happening before our own eyes.

@DailyMonitor @UgEquityBank Hopefully he is not the one behind the money that has been missing on people's accounts, otherwise we wish him well in his next journey.
