ZIMBABWEAN ROORA (lobola) is a traditional Shona practice where a man pays bride price to the family of his bride-to-be for her hand in marriage. This price is usually in the form of cattle, cash, groceries and clothing to the bride’s parents. It is common belief that marriages by nature bring people together as the saying goes ‘kuroora kuvaka ukama’ (marriage builds relationships).
Roora (lobola) can be an all-day event, the highlight being the negotiations for rusambo. At each stage of the ceremony, there are traditions to observe and payments made in small increments that are determined during negotiations and are dependent on various factors. No roora or lobola is exactly the same. There are different cultural and family dynamics.

Its barbaric practice which was started by our forefathers who viewed women as possessions of men
@@jamesgordonphiri362 don't be silly its redistribution of wealth. Our fathers were much wiser than you
@@douglasr6127 they practiced musengabere (kidnapping and forcing girls into marriage),kugaranhaka as in the husband's relatives sharing his wealth among themselves,virginity testing,damages....
Ndirooreiwoooooooooo
Wonderful
Thank you. I tape the anointing

Never seen anything soo interesting in our culture
Barbaric culture. How can a human being pay for another human being
@@jamesgordonphiri362 something does not become barbaric because you have different views on the same subject, but getting emotional about it like you are doing does😂.
@@shingiriromupanda7391 Our forefathers viewed women as possessions. Possessions that they either gave to each other as gifts or sold to each other.Marriage back then was a master-slave kind of relationship. They even practised ukutwala/musengabere where a man could kidnap a woman of his choice (lust) and force lobola negotiations on the family. The woman 's family didn't care as long as cows were coming. Women were not even allowed to inherit wealth from their deceased husbands. How could a cow inherit another cow?In the event that the woman fail pregnant out of wedlock a fine called damages these days was paid to the father. Not the woman who has been damaged. It was paid to the father because it is his property that had been damaged. The woman received nothing. She was left all alone to deal with the stigma of having a baby out of wedlock and society called deregotary names. Women are paid for because they are viewed as going into the marriage to serve the husband. Marriage in the old days when lobola was created had nothing to do with love.Women's feelings,choices and emotions were not considered. A father could give away his other daughter to his son in law just because the other daughter could not bear a son.The barbarism comes from reducing women to mere commodities that are paid for. The fact that lobola is CHARGED,NEGOTIATED & PAID makes it a sale
Woow
Awesome its so informative
Oh wow
Those are just too many thousands I was hearing
Wooo w wooow 👏🙏😭🙏😭🙏
thank you
I am also learning .
Saka vanoenda kunoroora ne $100usd vanozvifambisa sei😂 coz mmm zvoda homwe yakasimba izvi
Taura zvako kusimba chaiko
Good idea, please cover all Zimbabwe tribes lobola culture. Then for the name to be true "Being African" you then must go to each country and tribes there in. I see money all around 💰💰💰💰💰
Thank you Clorisa! We are working diligently to make "Being African" true to its name. We welcome everyone willing to have dialogue with us pertaining to marriage ceremonies in all 54 countries.
If you already have a cultural/customary marriage video or know a group of people who can dramatize....
