Why is there labola?
Labola, or bride price, is a traditional practice in various cultures, particularly in parts of Africa, where the groom's family pays a price to the bride's family as part of the marriage process. It signifies respect for the bride's family and their role in raising her. Labola can also symbolize the groom's commitment and responsibility towards the bride and their future family. Additionally, it fosters social ties and reinforces familial bonds between the two families involved.
