The Standard e-Paper
Kenya’s Boldest Voice
The Standard Group Plc is a
multi-media organization with investments in media platforms spanning newspaper
print operations, television, radio broadcasting, digital and online services. The
Standard Group is recognized as a leading multi-media house in Kenya with a key
influence in matters of national and international interest.
I agree with the Catholic Archbishop John Cardinal Njue who recently raised the matter of unreasonable pride price demands by some parents.
He cautioned parents against asking for too much for their daughters and said this was a major hindrance for young people who wish to get married. It is so sad that bride price has been commercialised and lost its very essence as a result. In some societies, the girls are seen as a source of wealth through bride price.
