Yoruba 2023 Q28: IRÓ ÈDÈÈlbí àṣà Yorùbá wo ni a ti ń san owó orí?

In Yoruba culture, “owó orí” is the bride price. The groom’s family pays it to the bride’s family as part of the marriage rites.

So the custom where “owó orí” is paid is Ìgbéyawó, which means marriage. Naming a child (ìkómọjáde), house building (ilé síṣí) and burial (ìsìnkú) have their own rites.
