Marriage that occurs between a man and a woman will have both physical and spiritual consequences between them, on society and also disputes with assets acquired between them both before, during and after the marriage takes place. Marriage according to customary law is a very important matter because it does not only involve the relationship between the two parties of the bride and groom, but also concerns the family relationship between the two parties.
