I have a rather different view; Our society, customs and traditions demand so much from their young men. Imagine going to get married to a woman of your dream and was asked to pay :

1. huge dowry  (the lady's parents will take that opprtunity to recorver all the money they've spent on her with interest. )
2. elder's cut,
3. traditional marriage,
4. court registry, 
5. bachelors party
6. church marriage

You finished sec. school at 17-20, UNI. at 25-29 (due to strikes)
After UNI. you join unemployment market at least 2-3 yrs.
When you get a new job, family pressure is all around waiting... no financial help from the government.

Nna, make I stop here...make decades of anger no kom tear my brain.

Marriage is not an avenue for boys and girls but for mature minds
