Question 1
Tendai and Keneilwe were University sweethearts, and as soon as they graduated from
university in 2015 decided to live together. In 2020, Tendai’s uncle intimated to the couple
that he is prepared to assist them with initiating the talks between the families to start
marriage negotiations for the couple. They both agreed and a meeting between the two
families was arranged in May 2020 for the negotiations to begin. Although charging the
R120,000 as the amount liable to be paid lobolo to Keneilwe’s family, an amount of R80,000
was agreed upon by the familied to at least be paid by Tendai’s family to be able to secure
a marriage agreement with Keneilwe’s family. Tendai was only able to raise R50,000 and
transferred this amount to Keneilwe’s family, regarding it as a deposit to the prescribed
R80,000. The slaughtering of the cow ceremony to mark the conclusion of the marriage
negotiations was postponed until the payment of the shortfall to R80,000 as the agreed
amount by the families.
