Paying dowry is a traditional practice, at least among most Kenya tribes. Among the Luos and their neighbors, the Luyiah community, it is considerably hard, if not impossible, to find parents who will accept to give you their daughter for free. The interesting thing is that this tradition is a respecter of no man; it doesn’t matter whether your father is a hustler or dynasty.
