Reno Omokri on his twitter page says according to the scriptures, bride price is only paid for brides who are virgins.

He quoted Exodus 22: 16 – 17 to verify his statement.

See what he wrote:

"What I am going to say will shock people. Scripturally, Bride Price is ONLY paid for virgins. Don’t argue with me. Argue with God. See Exodus 22:16-17. By virtue of Scripture (and also in traditional African society), you pay no Bride Price for non Virgin.
