Has lobola become a business? Tell us why? PDF Print Email

On Monday 30th April 2012 Shift questions whether lobolo or lobola/magadi is a traditional Southern African custom whereby the man pays the family of his fiancée for her hand in marriage.  The custom is aimed at bringing the two families together, fostering mutual respect and indicating that the man is capable of supporting his wife financially and emotionally.  
Traditionally the lobola payment was in cattle which were the primary symbol of wealth in African society. However in our modern times urban couples have switched to using cash.  This brings up many questions. 
• Have women become commodities to be sold and how does it affect their status in the marriage?
• Has lobola lost its true meaning and has just become a business?
• Does lobola create a financial barrier for men looking for a bride?
Watch Shift on SABC 1 for more about the origins of lobola and its true meaning.  Viewers are invited to contact Shift for further details on email shift@sabc.co.za
